SALT LAKE CITY (AP) - Authorities have suspended the search for a fisherman who was reported missing from a Utah reservoir.

The Salt Lake Tribune reports (https://bit.ly/2jmO0K2 ) that the search for the man was called off on Monday due to a storm that pummeled northern Utah. Officials believe the man fell into the water at Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area while unloading a boat on Friday.

The Daggett County Sheriff’s Office says responding teams were unable to get to the area where the 59-year-old went missing due to inclement weather. The search will continue when weather permits additional crews to arrive.
