NC sheriff calls off 'bizarre' search for man missing in Croatan National Forest
Saturday, June 5, 2021 8:41PM
CROATAN NATIONAL FOREST, N.C. -- North Carolina authorities have called off a week-long search for a man who went missing while on a walk in the Croatan National Forest.

The Carteret County Sheriff Asa Buck calling it a "bizarre case." He said it's not uncommon for people to go missing in the woods, but in his 15 years in office, he has never seen a search last as long as the search of 20-year-old Joshua Clauson.

In the video interview, the sheriff also said "we can't say with certainty that he didn't come out, and by the same token, we can't say with certainty that he remains in the woods, or that his body is still in the woods. It's open to a lot of speculation"

So that doesn't exactly narrow down possibilities much. But from this statement, he does apparently think that JC had at the least been in the woods that day, maybe from the shoe prints.
 
Man missing for more than a week has been found alive

According to Carteret County officials, a citizen called Carteret County Communications to report that a man walked out of a wooded area on Sunday morning.

The man was then transported to Carteret Health Care, where his condition is listed as stable.

Detectives responded to the hospital and confirmed his identity as Joshua Clauson. The sheriff’s office thanks all those who assisted and shared information related to the search. More details will be released as they become available.
 
Very happy he is safe.

However.

I have to wonder precisely what transpired between him and his family member right before they went for that walk in Croatan National Forest. That may - or may not - explain why he got lost.
