Found by Sea King
On Monday night, a dog patrol conducted a search when there were no people in the area. Today they went through several cabins in the hope that the missing person had settled in one of them.
A Sea King rescue helicopter was put into the search on Sunday and can also be used on Monday.
On Monday night, the helicopter found the man in the open air.
– An autopsy is performed on the deceased. Otherwise, they are ending the search with everyone involved in the area. The most important thing now is taking care of family members, Hollingen says.
