Search to resume for missing Bellevue man

Sarpy County Sheriff's Office authorities will continue to search today for a man who went missing Sunday evening in the Missouri River, said Lt. Russ Zeeb.
Dive teams from Ralston and Lewis Township, Iowa, the Omaha Police Department's helicopter and Sarpy officials searched for more than 13 hours Monday but didn't find the man, who family members have identified as John Brooks.
Authorities were first called to the river at Bellevue's Haworth Park about 6:30 p.m. Sunday to look for Brooks, 34.
He had been swimming with family members near a sandbar north of the Bellevue Bridge when he had trouble getting back to the shore, a family member has said. The relatives tried to get a flotation device to Brooks, but he was ultimately pulled under the water.
Officials searched Sunday until dark and from about 8 a.m. until dark Monday.
The search area Monday extended from 1/2 mile north of the Bellevue Bridge to 3/4 mile south of the mouth of the Platte River, near Plattsmouth, Zeeb said.
The Sheriff's Office planned to put its boat back in the water at 8 a.m. today to resume the search, Zeeb said.
"I never give up hope," he said.
