PORTLAND, Ore. -- Authorities along the Willamette River say they have found the bodies of two brothers missing since Sunday.

Police say the bodies were found Tuesday under water near a concrete deck where the brothers' fishing gear was found two days ago.

Family members say 20-year-old Alvin Troub and 8-year-old Michael Runyon went fishing Sunday, but had disappeared when their grandfather came to pick them up.

The search lasted more than 40 hours, and was conducted by volunteers, area law enforcement officers, divers and search dogs.
