Albany firefighters search the freezing waters again in hopes of finding an elderly Lee County woman missing since Christmas Eve.

This is the first time firefighters have searched Lake Chehaw since 77-year-old Fannie Corley’s memorial service on January 3rd. Firefighters rode the waters doing a visual search for about 5 hours Monday. The water temperatures are in the upper 30s, lower 40s and the current is strong. These are the same problems rescue teams faced after Corley’s abandoned car was found on the Old Leesburg Road Bridge on Christmas Eve. The fire department will continue to search the water every few days.

Rangers with the Georgia Department of Natural Resources say they found a pair of pants in the Flint River a few weeks ago that belonged to Corley. The Lee County woman disappeared without a trace and her abandoned car was found on the Old Leesburg Bridge over Lake Chehaw.

Detectives and rescue crews say the Flint River is down which makes locating a body in the water easier. They say they’ll continue to search for Corley until she’s found.
