Search resumes for body of man in Big Sioux River

Posted: Updated:

Crews have resumed search efforts for a man who went missing in the Big Sioux River after trying to save a 6-year-old boy.

Crews resumed the search for the body of Lyle Eagletail, 28, Saturday morning.

Eagletail has been missing since Thursday evening. That's when he tried to help save a 6-year-old boy who either fell into the frothing water or became obscured by the gathering foam.

The boy later emerged and was not injured. The boy's sister, Madison Leigh Wallace, 16, also jumped in. Her body was located Friday afternoon.
