The Chisago County Sheriff’s Office is asking anyone with information regarding a missing hunter from North Branch to reach out.
Harlan Altepeter, 56, did not return after a planned deer hunt near the Wild Rose Wildlife Management Area. While his vehicle was found in the management area’s parking lot, there have been no signs of him.
Multiple agencies searched the area on Saturday to locate him.
“We are not in need of volunteers at this time,” the sheriff’s office said in a statement. “At this stage, we are focusing on a coordinated multi-public safety agency search utilizing available technology and K9’s.
“While we understand many have the best and most helpful intentions in mind, additional non-public safety professionals (at this stage of our search) will only limit and hinder the operations already underway.”
