East Hampton Police Chief Sarlo said that "a full court press search" was initiated immediately after Mr. Beard was reported missing from his house on "old" Old Montauk Highway east of Deep Hollow Ranch in Montauk at about 6:40 p.m. Montauk Fire Department personnel and a Suffolk County police helicopter joined in the search on Tuesday night and were back out looking for him on Wednesday morning.
Chief Sarlo declined to confirm the identity of the missing person.
The search was limited to patrol units and fire department volunteers on the trail heads and roadways around the area overnight, Chief Sarlo said. The Fire Department, helicopter, state police K9 units and state parks police, along with a drone, have been assisting town police in grid-area searches. The area includes Camp Hero State Park.
The description of Mr. Beard given over the police radio is that he is 5 feet, 8 inches, tall, about 176 pounds, with grey hair and blue eyes. He was last seen wearing a grey pullover, black jogging pants, and blue sneakers.
