Searchers are still looking for a missing Cal Poly student who disappeared after inner-tubing on the Sacramento River near Chico.

Friends last saw 20-year old Brett Olson at one on Sunday while beaching his inner tube on a gravel island.

Witnesses say late last night they thought they heard someone moaning in the wilderness area near the island. Ground and helicopter searches last night and today turned up nothing.

The gravel island is the end point of a traditional Labor Day float trip that attracted about 10-thousand people this year.

The Butte County Sheriff's Office says it will continue their search tomorrow.
