Jacob and Jeremiah Sanders were reported missing Wednesday night while fishing near Florence, Alabama. Their boat was recovered under a bridge, but there has been no sign of the brothers. Lauderdale County Emergency Management Agency officials told ABC3340.com that the boat was heavily damaged. "The boat was pinned under one of the pilings on the bridge on the Wilson Dam side," Emergency Management Agency director Tim Greer said. "From what I was told — I didn't actually see it myself — it was some kind of impact... some kind of accident that the boat had. The hull had pretty substantial damage to it." State and local authorities searched the area all day Thursday with no luck.
