Five people are dead after two boats collided on a river in Georgia over Memorial Day weekend, officials said.
Nine people were aboard two boats -- six in one, three in the other, officials said. The boats were traveling in opposite directions when witnesses said they collided, according to the Georgia Department of Natural Resources. Three men were missing in the wake of the incident -- a 37-year-old man and two men in their early 20s -- but were found Sunday morning, according to the U.S. Coast Guard.
The bodies were found close to one another in 14-foot-deep water near the site of the crash, said McKinnon."Rough day today out here," Bill Koster, the chief of operations for Chatham County Emergency Services, also told reporters.
