Crews continue to search for a missing teenager from New Cumberland.

It's now been 27 days since 17-year-old Medard Kowalski went missing while boating on the Susquehanna River.

In Saturday's efforts, two water dogs and four search and rescue dogs were brought in to help locate Kowalski. The dogs led crews to an area north of the boat launch on New Market along the river. A sonar and an underwater camera were also used as part of the effort.

Crews say today's warm temperature helped but the search came up empty. Family members aren't giving up hope. "I mean I know they're focused on what we're all focused on -- just finding him," said Matt Stoner, Commander for the New Cumberland River Rescue.

Family, friends and volunteers all plan to resume the search on Sunday at 9 a.m.
