An 18-year-old from Havre de Grace has been missing on the Susquehanna River for six days, and a national search and rescue organization has stepped in to help find him.
What’s happening: Mark Everett Coates III was last seen around 5 p.m. Wednesday, November 4, near the Thomas J. Hatem Memorial Bridge on the Susquehanna River. He has not been found.
