Chris Terlesky. The search matches the area where missing Kelowna man Dillon Angle’s vehicle was located on October 19. “We feel that given the proximity to where the vehicle was found in the water, this is a necessary step in order to ensure that a full and complete investigation is undertaken,” says Terleski. Vernon Search and Rescue volunteers comb the area of the Tronson boat launch. “We are in contact with the family, who are aware of the investigation and the steps being taken as we continue our efforts to locate Mr. Angle,” Terleski said. Angle, 32, was reported missing after his abandoned vehicle was discovered. ORIGINAL: 2:15 p.m A search is underway at Okanagan Lake in Vernon.

It is not known at this time what they are looking for, but VSAR confirmed it is working in conjunction with an RCMP investigation. Castanet has contacted the Vernon RCMP with additional information. A team of police dogs was also seen in the area on Thursday afternoon.
