(Cincinnati, Oh.) - An Erlanger woman has been identified as a boater who disappeared in the Ohio River Saturday.

Whitney Crank has been missing since Saturday evening. The 31-year-old fell from a boat into the river at Cincinnati. She was not wearing a lifejacket.

A man on the boat with her, Michael Bilokonsky, of Fort Thomas, attempted to dive into the river and rescue her. He could not locate her. Bilokonsky was later pulled from the water by another boater.
