Brother dead, sister missing in search along Juneau’s Lemon Creek

Juneau police say a local man's body found Sunday along Lemon Creek has prompted a search for his sister after authorities discovered a campsite apparently belonging to them.

some other reports without much more information: http://www.ktuu.com/content/news/Ju...er-brother-found-dead-in-creek-386336431.html

From Los's link it sounds like they may have both drowned due to recent flooding in the area: A U.S. Geological Survey hydrologist told searchers Monday that the melting contributed to fast currents in the creek, which apparently carried George Young's body about a mile downstream from the campsite.

Authorities launched a massive search — by ground with canines and handlers, by air in a Temsco helicopter and by water in jet boats — for the 36-year-old woman after her brother George Benjamin Young, 40, was found dead Sunday afternoon.

Juneau Police Department spokesman Lt. David Campbell said a passerby found George’s body lying face down in Lemon Creek while driving along the Egan Drive bridge around 4 p.m. Sunday. Police believe the two siblings were together on the banks of Lemon Creek near Glacier Highway when George’s body was taken by the water’s current.
