3 boys drown in Maryland creek
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Authorities say three boys have drowned in a creek on Maryland's Eastern Shore.
The boys were two 12-year-old cousins and an 8-year-old friend. They were last seen late Saturday afternoon playing basketball in a church parking lot.
Capt. Jerry Kirkwood of the Maryland Natural Resources police says the boys' parents were at work Saturday. The boys were reported missing early Sunday.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Kirkwood says it's possible they went into the creek to cool off. The creek is 25 feet wide and 5-to-10 feet deep.
Rescue dogs helped lead authorities to the bodies Sunday morning. The third body was recovered with the help of a dive team.
Officials say the bodies were pulled from Marshyhope Creek in Federalsburg.
