WATCH HEREAn update released on the evening of April 15 said that authorities have yet to recover Francesco, with high water levels contributing to the difficulty of the search.
Police said in their latest statement that additional assistance from volunteers is anticipated in the coming days.
Due to fast-moving water and high water levels, individuals are encouraged to not navigate the river in a canoe or kayak.
Officials said the search area has shifted significantly south on the river, specifically south of the Indian Trails boat launch.
