Father wants search for son to continue

The father of a missing fisher is asking the coast guard to resume a full search effort in hopes of recovering his son and one crew member of a ninemetre boat that went missing Friday off the coast of Labrador. Dwight Russell said in an interview Monday morning his family in Mary’s Harbour has been “set adrift” by the Canadian Coast Guard, after the joint search and rescue co-ordination centre in Halifax indicated Sunday evening it had handed over the search for his son Marc Freeman Russell and crewmate Joey Jenkins to the RCMP.
