‘Person In Distress’ Report Unfounded

The Donora Fire Company now says a report of a ‘person in distress’ turned out to be unfounded over the weekend. First responders were on the Monongahela River on Saturday. In a social media post, the Rostraver Township Fire Department said it was assisting the Donora Fire Company with a search on the river. Rostraver reportedly provided water rescue resources to search the area and used a thermal imaging drone. Officials say they were “unable to locate a person in distress.”
