(Jackson, Mn.)– The search for a missing 11-year-old child in Jackson Monday ended on a happy note.
In a post on social media, the Estherville Fire Department says they were requested by the Jackson Fire Department to assist in the search. The child had apparently wandered off into an area near the Des Moines River. The Estherville Fire Department deployed their watercraft and UTV at what’s known as Neppl’s Bridge and searched the west bank of the river.
Authorities say the child was found safe and sound next to the road after about an hour into the search.
