I don't know anything about two names, but were they going ice fishing? That could be a problem with this mild winter. Three people died in Vermont since Thursday when they fell through the ice trying to fish.

The vehicle they were traveling in was found at the marina by Metroparks police officers on Friday night.

Family members told 19 News the key was in the ignition, the car was running, both men’s cell phones were inside, and their fishing poles were found near the water.

Cleveland police and the United States Coast Guard searched the marina, but the men were not found.

Anyone with information is asked to call Cleveland police at 216-621-1234.

The website for the marina shows it's "temporarily closed". Is that due to a search or was it closed for other reasons before they went missing?

It's been unseasonably warm in the Midwest, so I don't think there's any ice to fish off of.

I wonder if one man fell in and the other drowned trying to save the first? That's the most plausible explanation I can come up with, unless they were accosted at the marina.

That's the only thing I can think of also. I wonder with respect to the car running that one of the men was listening to the radio, having a cig break, charging his phone, you name it and witnessed the other fall and then jumped out of the car in a rush to save him. MOO
