WASHINGTON COUNTY, INDIANA, Ind. — Charges are currently pending against two people after the Indiana Department of Natural Resources said they snorted methamphetamine before embarking on a 12-mile paddling trip on the Blue River in Washington County.
According to a Facebook post by the Indiana DNR, conservation officers spent over seven hours searching for the pair after relatives reported them missing.
They were located safely in Harrison County in the morning hours of Aug. 3. The pair reportedly was not wearing life jackets at the time.
Conservation officers soon discovered the pair had broken into a camper about nine miles downstream, where they rested following their excursion.
