Missing Man near Morris

The following was copied from Tioga Publishing. Hunters if you are in this area watch for this person. They could be down in leaves as well as walking. Last night and today will be rough due to rain...we hope for the best.
We are still gathering information and have been in contact with the search party as well as police in Atwood's hometown. Based on the latest information, the clothing described below does not appear to be credible and no one saw Atwood in Tioga County.
Tioga District Forester Chris Gastrock said this morning that the search continues for 92-year-old Fred Atwood. Gastrock and 90 volunteers are on scene today.
Morris Fire Chief Dean Kreger said the search began Sunday night, Oct. 12, and continued through Monday, Oct. 13.
Kreger said Atwood was last seen Wednesday, Oct. 8, exiting his vehicle one mile above Morris, wearing green pants and a green jacket. Searchers found the car unlocked with the keys inside.

If you have any information on Atwood's condition or whereabouts, call 9-1-1 or the District Forest office at 570-724-2868.

UPDATE FRED ATWOOD'S BODY WAS FOUND IN TIOGA STATE FOREST ON THE DAY I POSTED THIS!
