RedactedNarrative: The San Jacinto Co Sheriff's office received a call for a missing person, subject 1, who had gone out on Lake Livingston in a canoe a couple of hours prior to dark on December 24, 2009, and had not returned by dark. They called us to assist in the search for the missing person. Game Warden  was on scene and advised that the water was too rough for a search by boat and that we would get on the water as soon as possible. Winds were blowing out of the West at approximately 50 miles per hour that evening. We got out the next morning and the S.O. called in the USCG to assist with the search for the missing canoe and its operator. They spotted it approximately 8 miles south by southeast from where the victim was last seen. We began our search of the cove with side-scan sonar imagers and found nothing.  Recovery efforts are ongoing.
