SWP still unable to find teen who jumped from MO River bridge

The Missouri River has gone down enough for the State Water Patrol to use its sonar to look for a Jefferson City teenager who jumped into the river three months ago. But the Patrol has found no trace of 16-year old Robert Nichols, who went off the bridge at Jefferson City after jumping from a car taking him to a detention facility. The water patrol thinks Nichols might be tangled in underwater debris downstream.
