NORTH PLATTE, Neb.-Search teams remain vigilant in the search for the missing North Platte resident Larry Sack who went missing near Labor Day. Sack was reported missing when he failed to show up for a family event which is unusual for him according to Sack’s family.
Family found Sack’s vehicle near the Nebraska Public Power District Canal which is where the investigation began. Now search teams are searching the Inlet in the Sutherland Reservoir.
On Saturday September 15th, a bloodhound was deployed on a boat which led search teams to an area northeast of the Inlet.
Bloodhounds are used in missing people cases because of their keen sense of smell and other features allow them to follow scents.
Sutherland and Paxton dive teams searched the area with no findings.
On Sunday the same bloodhound was again deployed leading crews to the same area as well as another location. Dive teams from Sutherland and Ogallala worked on Sunday, citizens also helped in the search.
Nothing was found on Sunday. The Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office says a bloodhound search may happen later this week.
The search for Larry Sack continues.
