LONG BEACH, Miss. (AP) – Search crews used kayaks, a helicopter and four-wheelers in a two-hour search to find two men who had been reported missing on Wolf River for more than 30 hours.

The Sun Herald reports firefighters found the men about 1:30 p.m. Sunday, after a search by the Harrison County Sheriff’s Office, Harrison County Fire Services, the Lizana and West Harrison County fire departments and Gulf Coast Search and Rescue.

Family members said the men had gone out on the river on inner tubes early Saturday morning. When they were overdue, family called for help.
