Police have suspended the search for two men who fell into the Housatonic River Wednesday night in New Milford.
Reports to police say the two men may have been fishing near Bleachery Dam before they went into the water.
Police say the water in that area is deeper, faster and riskier than it can appear.
The two victims haven't been identified, but are confirmed to be 23 and 36 years old.
