Search turns to recovery mission for missing girl in Passaic River | NBC New York [XYmKHeplzn8]
The search for a 10-year-old girl missing in the Passaic River after ending up in the water with two other kids continues Thursday, hours after another 10-year-old's body was found 50 feet from where he went in. The two 10-year-olds and an 11-year-old girl, the dead boy's sister, entered the water at the Dundee Island Park boat launch. It wasn't clear whether they went in by accident or by choice. Passaic Mayor Hector Lora says the boy who died may have saved his sister's life, pushing her as he went under to some nearby rocks. She was able to climb out. Investigators searched the water for hours Wednesday to no avail. They resumed their search around 9 a.m., with state troopers on boats and divers in the water. Lora said given the amount of time she's been missing, the rescue mission has turned into a recovery one. #nj #passaic #search #missing #news
