RedactedNarrative: On June 8, 2014, I was dispatched to a possible drowning in the area of the Lucile Boat Ramp. I arrived on scene at approximately 1430 hours, and made contact with three people. All three gave a similar account of the incident. The three of them, along with victim, Operator’s husband, were rafting on the Main Salmon. All parties on the boat had previous experience with whitewater rafting and kayaking. At one point, thinking that they were close to the take out location, all parties on the raft took off their life vests and relaxed on top of the boat in the sun. As they neared the take out, there was one last small rapid that caught them by surprise, throwing three out of the boat into the water. 
  
  Operator had been on the back deck, and scrambled forward to take control of the raft. Two others both surfaced and saw VICTIM between them. They all indicated to each other that they were okay. They then turned towards shore and began swimming to the bank. Subject1 reached the bank first, with Subject2 a short distance downstream of her. Operator brought the boat to shore as well. When they looked back, they could not see VICTIM. A search of the riverbank did not locate him, and they yelled for help from passing vehicles. 
  
  After talking to the three, I did a precursory search of the riverbank from the roadway. A few minutes later, Deputy arrived on scene. I asked Deputy to stay searching the bank with the three, while I went to get a boat, which I did. 
  
  I returned a short time later, having gotten assistance from a local outfitter and his large jet boat. We did a slow downstream search of both banks from the spot of the incident to about 3 miles downstream. We then turned back upstream and hugged the west side of the riverbank searching it very closely. Once back up to the site of the incident, we then turned and slowly searched the east side of the riverbank back down three miles. We were unable to locate any sign of VICTIM. 
  
  Fish and Game Officer then arrived on scene with their jet boat. I requested an agency assist, and asked him to search the river from 3 mile location, down to White Bird and back (approximately 25 miles downstream). Officer did so, and was also unable to locate VICTIM. 
  
  The following day on June 9, 2014, I met with a group of VICTIM's family members and friends. I answered questions and explained to them the things that "commonly" happen in these types of incidents. 
  
  VICTIM was listed as a missing person, and as of June 16, 2014.
