The search for an 18-year-old man who went missing at a Winnetka beach early Tuesday morning was suspended until Wednesday morning due to conditions at the lake, officials said.
Around 2 a.m., officials were called to the scene at Elder Lane Beach on Sheridan Road where a teen went missing after going into the lake.
Winnetka Village Communication Manager Josie Clark said the search for the missing 18-year-old was suspended Tuesday afternoon due to the conditions at Lake Michigan.
“Tomorrow unfortunately will be a recovery situation,” Clark said.
Monday, the National Weather Service issued a beach hazard warning of waves up to 9 feet and dangerous currents. The warnings were due to expire Tuesday night, weather officials said.
