WEST FARGO (KFGO-AM) -- There's a renewed search for a missing snowmobiler on the Sheyenne River in West Fargo. Valley Water Rescue is using specially trained dogs from Minneapolis, St.Cloud and Moorhead as they search for the body of Cole Schwindt, 34, of Moorhead, who's been missing since Dec. 2.
A series of holes have been drilled through nearly 3-feet of ice over a 3/4 mile stretch of the river. The holes have been carefully marked with flags.
It's hoped the specially trained dogs will be able to pick up Schwindt's scent. If they do, augers will be used to drill more holes and camera's will be put in the water to get a better look.
The dive team is asking sightseers to stay away so the dog's don't get distracted.
