Searchers will be back out Tuesday morning looking for two missing teens. The Mobile County Sheriff's Office believes 17-year-old Stephen Fowler and his 16-year-old cousin, Timothy McDuffie, drowned in Big Creek Lake. We're told the two teens were fishing on a 14-foot boat and were not wearing life jackets. Searchers looked by boat, helicopter and on foot Monday. Family members watched and waited at the boat ramp area. They're still holding out hope their boys will be found alive. A sheriff's office chaplain spoke on their behalf," they're very hopeful. They have faith that the boys are going to be found and all afternoon they have just basically stood out here, they've prayed together as a family, they have stayed together as a family, and just believe that and had hope that, you know, that they will be found," said Mobile County Sheriff's Office Reserve Chaplain, Joey Turman. The Mobile County Sheriff's Office Flotilla, the Coast Guard, Alabama Marine Police and State Troopers will be back out Tuesday morning searching Big Creek Lake for the missing teens.
