Wis. Sheriff: No Leads In Missing Autistic MN Man

GRANTSBURG, Wis. (AP) ― The sheriff says there are no leads in the search for an autistic man missing since Sunday night after wandering away from a camp in the Grantsburg area of northwestern Wisconsin.

Burnett County Sheriff Dean Roland says hundreds of searchers have covered 14 square miles looking for 25-year-old Keith Kennedy from Shoreview, Minnesota, and have found no sign of him.

Kennedy vanished from the Trade Lake Camp, which is for developmentally disabled adults, while walking back to his cabin to get ready for bed.

Roland says camp counselors lost track of him for only a couple of minutes before he disappeared.

The sheriff is now seeking the public's help in asking whether anyone may have given Kennedy a ride.

Roland says tracking dogs picked up a brief scent of Kennedy but then it just disappeared.
