GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — Crews in Grand Rapids have temporarily suspended their search for someone who went missing in the Grand River Thursday night.

Calls first came in at around 9 p.m. regarding the incident in the 3000 block of Monroe Avenue, across the street from the Michigan Veteran Homes at Grand Rapids.

A bystander told our FOX 17 crew on scene they saw someone struggling in the water.

Grand Rapids’ police and fire departments conducted a search, which was suspended an hour and a half later due to the dark conditions. The search is expected to resume Friday.
