RAPID CITY, S.D. (AP) - Authorities used sonar and divers to search a southwest South Dakota lake Thursday but did not find the body of a teenage boy who went missing while kayaking.
    
Crews used sonar-equipped boats from the state Game, Fish and Parks Department and divers with the Rapid City/Pennington County Water Rescue Team. Deerfield Lake southwest of Rapid City remained
closed to other boats.
    
The search for 15-year-old Justin Lewis of Hill City will resume Friday morning if water conditions allow.
    
Lewis was last seen on May 28 and he is presumed drowned.
