DULUTH, MN (AP) - Authorities have found an elderly Minnesota couple who went missing for more than 24 hours on a lake in Ontario.
 
WDIO-TV reports the Pine City couple went boating on Lac Des Milles Lacs northwest of Thunder Bay at about 1:30 p.m. Monday and did not return to their campsite at Pine Point Resort.
 
The North West Region Emergency Response Team of Ontario Provincial Police and a Ministry of Natural Resources Helicopter Unit conducted a search on Tuesday. The couple was found about 7 p.m.  They had experienced trouble with the boat motor.
