BROOKVILLE, Ind. — A couple swept away in a flood as they were staying in a cabin along Wolf Creek in Franklin County, Indiana has been identified.
According to Indiana Conservation Officers, 49-year-old Hardy Harris Jr. is the man whose body was recovered from the water on July 28, one day after the couple were swept away.
Officials said 53-year-old Virginia Marie Pennington is still missing.
The search for her continues, and has extended past the initial search area to include areas near where Wolf Creek meets the Whitewater River, officials said.
On July 27, the couple were staying in a cabin elevated on stilts along Wolf Creek in Brookville when it was swept away by floodwaters caused by heavy rain. The area received roughly 6 inches of rainfall throughout the evening.
Harris was found dead the afternoon of July 28 more than a half mile from where the cabin was originally located. Crews also found debris from the cabin during their searches, but they haven't located Pennington yet.
