CHICAGO (CBS) — Authorities are searching for a man who jumped into the Fox River on Thursday night in northwest suburban Algonquin.
A fisherman saw the man leap into the water about 9 p.m. near Route 62 and North River Road, according to the Algonquin-Lake in the Hills Fire Protection District.
Strong currents might have swept the man over a dam near that juncture of the river, fire officials said.
Dive teams searched the area until about midnight to no avail, officials said. They were preparing to resume searching about 7:15 a.m. Friday.
Algonquin police could not immediately be reached for more details.
