Two rescue from Winnebago River after canoe capsizes
|
|
HANLONTOWN --- Two people have been rescued from the Winnebago River between Hanlontown and Fertile after their canoe capsized. Dispatchers received a call shortly after 11 o’clock about two people in the river hanging on to a tree after the canoe capsized. Authorities had narrowed down the area between Fir and Grouse Avenues, with responders from both Worth and Cerro Gordo counties as well as the State Patrol and medical helicopter from Mercy Medical Center-North Iowa to assist in the search. A dispatcher at the Worth County Sheriff’s Department tells KGLO News that the two people were rescued shortly after 11:45 but it is not known whether or not they have been transported to the hospital.

AP source: Favre tells Vikings he will not return
|
|
MANKATO, Minn. (AP) - A person with knowledge of the situation tells The Associated Press that Brett Favre has informed the Vikings he will not return to Minnesota for a second season.
The person spoke on condition of anonymity Tuesday because the team had not made an official announcement. The person says the 40-year-old Favre called coach Brad Childress to say his injured ankle is not responding as well to surgery and rehabilitation as he had hoped.
With Favre, of course, nothing is ever necessarily final. He also told the Vikings last year he wouldn't play, but ultimately changed his mind and joined them immediately after they broke training camp.
Favre hurt his left ankle in the NFC championship loss to the New Orleans Saints. He had arthroscopic surgery in May.
