A large multi-agency search is underway after police located a vehicle believed to belong to a person who has been missing since July 1.
At approximately 3:00 p.m. Monday, Orangetown Police responded to a 911 call reporting a suspicious vehicle that had been parked in front of a residence on Washington Spring Road for an extended period. After checking the vehicle’s registration, officers determined it belonged to the missing individual.
Authorities are investigating the incident as a possible suicide and believe the person may have entered the Hudson River, prompting an extensive search on land, in the air, and on the water.
The search involves the Orangetown Police Department, K-9 units, the Rockland County Sheriff’s Office Drone Unit and Marine Unit, the Sparkill Fire Department, the Piermont Marine Unit, and the New Jersey Palisades Interstate Parkway Police Marine Unit.
The investigation remains active. Monsey Scoop will continue to monitor the situation and provide updates as more information becomes available.
