Searchers near Twin Falls in southern Idaho were looking for the body of a Graham man presumed drowned in the Snake River.

Justice Kramer, 42, was hiking along the river near Pillar Falls with his 18-year-old daughter and her friend Saturday evening when he slipped on some rocks and tumbled into the water, Twin Falls County sheriff’s spokeswoman Lori Stewart said. Kramer is presumed to have drowned.

Search-and-rescue teams have searched the area since Saturday night without success.
