LIHUE, Hawaii (AP) — Police in Hawaii have suspended searches for a Nebraska man until there is new information on his whereabouts.
Samuel Joseph Martinez was studying microbiology at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln before he flew to the Hawaiian island of Kauai on May 12.
The 23-year-old planned to spend nearly two weeks hiking and camping.
His family filed a missing person’s report with police in Nebraska after he missed his May 25 flight home.
A Kauai police spokesperson told The Garden Island the department searched areas where Martinez may have hiked, but nothing has been found.
