Just before 9:30 pm last night (Sunday 06-29-2014) the wife of an Omo Ranch man reported her husband missing. Gene Nugent’s wife advised the sheriff’s dispatch center that her 57 year old husband (Gene) had gone for a walk in the forest near their home and had not returned. The fact that he was hours overdue combined with medical issues gave her great concern.

Sheriff’s Search and Rescue personnel responded to the area and began to search through the night. Mr. Nugent was located in good condition just before 08:30 am this morning (Monday 06-30-2014) and was returned to his residence in Omo Ranch.
