Thursday marked New Hampshire authorities’ second day of searching for 79-year-old Paul Stewart, a Chesterfield resident they say is “vulnerable” and without necessary medication

Police think Stewart might’ve wandered into Pisgah State Park, the outskirts of which are close to Old Swanzey Road, WMUR reported. Stewart’s wife told the news station they have lived in the area for nearly 40 years, and that her husband knows the surrounding woods well.

“He’s definitely an experienced hiker. He would not go off trail,” Ronda Stewart said. “This is very uncharacteristic of him.”
