Boater missing on Forest Lake

STILLWATER, Minn. (AP) -- Search crews are looking for a missing boater on Forest Lake in Washington County.

Forest Lake police say an empty pontoon boat was found drifting on the lake Monday afternoon and a dog was found swimming alone. The pontoon's registration led authorities to a person who confirmed the boat's owner was missing.

The St. Paul Pioneer Press says the man has not been identified.
