SEARCH FOR MISSING BOY

ILLUSTRATION: ASSOCIATED PRESS

An Army diver searches Sunday night for a 10-year-old boy who

slipped off a Fort Eustis boat ramp into the chilly Warwick River.

The body of Jeromy Alexander was found by the Fort Eustis dive team

about 11 a.m. Monday near the ramp, a Fort Eustis spokeswoman said.

Army divers spent hours Sunday night looking for the boy, then

returned Monday to resume the search.
