MI WUK/SUGAR PINE FIRE FIGHTER'S SON LOST WHILE FISHING

Mi Wuk Village, CA -- The Tuolumne County Search and Rescue Team is continuing a search today for a man that fell into a river near Lyons Reservoir.  (BK:  South Fork of the Stanislaus River)

19-year-old Ian Brandow had been fishing with family members on Saturday when he fell into the water. The Sheriff's Office received a call from Brandow's family reporting the possible drowning at 6:02pm.  Lt. Ken Diaz says that rescuers spent Saturday night and Sunday walking along the shorelines, but Brandow could not be located.

Lt. Diaz notes that the water is high right now in areas around Lyons Dam Reservoir.

Ian Brandow is the son of Paul and Maryanne Brandow.  Paul is one of our beloved fire fighters.

We don't know the final outcome yet but it does not look good.  I will post more information as it is known.  My heart it broken for this wonderful family.
