Coast Guard searching for New England Patriots’ Marquise Hill

[Scurrilous]

<snip>

"New England Patriots player Marquise Hill was reported missing following a jetski accident on Lake Pontchartrain, where U.S. Coast Guard rescue crews were searching for him on Monday.

"We searched throughout the night," Petty Officer Tom Atkeson said of the call the Coast Guard received about 9:30 p.m. Sunday.

Hill’s agent, Albert Elias, said he had been told Hill and a young woman were jetskiing Sunday in the lake when both of them went into the water, which had a strong current. Elias said the woman was able to make it to a pylon and hang on until she was rescued, while Hill was last seen floating away from the scene.

"I’m an optimistic guy," Elias told WWL television in New Orleans. "He’s a strong kid and a fighter."

Hill played on LSU’s national championship team and was a second-round draft pick by New England in 2004."
