PLYMOUTH &mdash; A candlelight vigil will be held tonight for two Plymouth teens whose bodies were pulled from the Susquehanna River on Tuesday night, and an initial report on their deaths has been released.
				The victims were males aged 15 and 17, according to a statement issued by Luzerne County Coroner Frank Hacken on Wednesday.
				Their names have not yet been released, and an autopsy has been scheduled for Thursday. Hacken directed further questions to Plymouth Borough Police, who have not yet released any additional information on the case.
				The vigil will be held at 7 p.m. along the dike overlooking the portion of the river where the victims went into the water.
				Calls came in to 911 around 4:45 p.m. on Tuesday reporting that the two males had gone into the river and had possibly drowned. Rescue units from a variety of different companies responded to the scene just off the Carey Avenue Bridge in Plymouth.
				The bodies were recovered from the river around 9:45 p.m. by dive rescue teams, according to the coroner&rsquo;s office release. The area of the river where the bodies were recovered was estimated to be about 20 feet deep, and the victims were recovered approximately 30 feet from the shoreline.
