News Release from Lane Co. Sheriff’s Office
Posted on FlashAlert: January 28th, 2024 7:25 AM
Sheriff’s Search & Rescue (SAR), Detectives, Patrol Deputies, and friends and family searched miles of roads in the area surrounding Stone’s residence since he went missing. Additionally, outside agencies assisted with checking Stone’s other properties throughout the state. As other areas were narrowed down, the focus became Layng Creek Road. SAR volunteers worked on sawing through downed trees on Friday until dark. Saturday, friends and family continued working saws up the road, ultimately locating Stone’s pickup and notifying the Sheriff’s Office. SAR conducted ground search operations, and plan to continue searching, including the use of SAR K9 teams, until he is found.
The Sheriff’s Office would like to thank the many volunteers, friends, and family that have assisted on this case.
