The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office is continuing search efforts in the Twin Lakes area for a missing Roseburg man.
Sergeant Brad O’Dell said 69-year old Harry Burleigh was reported missing on Friday after he failed to return home from a camping trip in the Toketee area. O’Dell said Burleigh was originally due to arrive home on Thursday, but failed to do so.
DCSO’s Search and Rescue team was dispatched to begin looking for Burleigh. Saturday morning his vehicle was located at the lower trailhead to Forest Service Road trail 1500, which leads into Twin Lakes. Burleigh, a fisherman, is believed to have attempted to walk into the lakes to fish before going home.
O’Dell said other counties are assisting in the search for Burleigh.
Burleigh is described as a white male adult, 6 feet 2 inches tall, weighing 175 pounds with dark graying brown hair and blue eyes. His clothing description is unknown, but he may be carrying a day pack and collapsible fishing pole.
Anyone who believes they have information which may assist in the search is asked to contact DCSO at 440-4471.
