Family, friends, volunteers and law enforcement have been searching acres of rural Kansas day and night for over a week, looking for an Olathe father of three who has been missing for 10 days.
“The past nine days have been exhausting for all involved, as approximately 4000 or more acres have been searched on ground and many more by volunteers, but our team remains committed to finding Jordan and will follow up on any leads to our fullest extent,”
Maxwell said they are emphasizing the area of 169 Highway to Hillsdale, and 255th Street to 235th Street. Officials Wednesday searched the area near 247th Street between 169 Highway and Columbia Road.
Yust’s six-year-old twin daughters also created their own flyer, where they wrote a personal message to their father, asking him to come home, Maxwell said.
Friends and family are continuing their search for an Olathe man who abruptly went missing on March 3.

It appears they searched the pond he was found in a few weeks earlier.
Despite extensive efforts, including a sonar search of the pond, three weeks of searching yielded no results.
Miami County Undersheriff Matt Kelly said the body appeared to have been in the water for at least a week and may have surfaced due to decomposition.
