Police, rescue crews search for missing man

The man from Lackawanna County was last seen on April 5.

MONROE COUNTY, Pa. — Search and rescue crews spent hours on Saturday looking for a missing man.

72-year-old Ronald Nicholas was last seen on April 5 in Lackawanna County.

Before 7 a.m., two fishermen found Nicholas' empty Toyota Tacoma parked near Bradys Lake in Monroe County.

State troopers and other officials have spent the day in Coolbaugh Township searching the 27,000 acres of woods around the park and lake for any sign of Nicholas.

Police believe Nicholas might be with his dog, a blue heeler named Cole.

"Because it's been determined that he entered this area at 4 p.m. on Monday, if anybody was at Bradys Lake or the surrounding areas around that time, we would love to know if you have any information," said Sandra Snyder, Nicholas' daughter.

Investigators called off search efforts for the night just before 7 p.m., they plan on picking it back up early Sunday morning in Monroe County.
