CFR: Overdue kayakers located after multi-agency search From Chris Taylor, Chief Executive Director Fire-Rescue-EMS Campbellsville Fire-Rescue Campbellsville Fire-Rescue was dispatched Green River (between 2MM and 14MM) for a report of two overdue kayakers at 10:55pmET on May 3, 2023. With nighttime temperatures in the upper 30's, we considered this an urgent request due to hypothermia concerns. Upon arrival, firefighters interviewed the reporting party, gathering information about the overdue individuals, CTC911 attempted phone trace with cell phone providers, provided a hasty search with FLIR UAV, created area command post/initial planning point (Roachville and Lemons Bend) and staged units at river exit points. This was a multi-jurisdictional response with Green County and Taylor County sharing the river in that area, and Greensburg/Green County Fire responded searching high probability areas in the Penitentiary Bend area. Voice contact, visual contact and FLIR UAV contact were made with the subjects simultaneously between Green and Campbellsville responders. UTV swiftwater crew entered the woods and water, removing the overdue kayakers to safety. Both victims were uninjured and released to awaiting family. We want everyone to enjoy the Green River but please keep these safety tips in mind to have a safe trip. Kayak Safety Tip Reminders:
