Officials looking for a man who disappeared on a rafting trip across the
Long Island Sound say they found him sleeping in a garbage can in
Connecticut.
The man, 33-year-old William Brandon McCreery, disappeared after heading
on a rafting trip from Greenport, New York, on Wednesday at about 5 pm,
officials say.
McCreery called a friend at about 7pm, indicating that there was a problem. Police and members of the Coast Guard say they started searching for McCreery after receiving reports about boaters knocking on doors in Clinton, Connecticut, seeking help.
Officials found McCreery later on Thursday sleeping in a garbage can in Clinton. It's not clear if he was suffering from hypothermia. Clinton and Greenport are separated by about 16 miles of water.
