Search Focused on Water
Massey disappeared early Sunday morning and was last seen on video at 3:25 a.m. In the area of East Baraga Avenue and the Founder’s Landing Boardwalk. The Marquette Police Department stated Tuesday evening that the search is now focused on the water of the lower harbor, near Founder’s Landing.
Agencies are reportedly looking for holes in the ice that might indicate Massey may have fallen through. Marquette County Sheriff’s Office Special Operations Division Lieutenant Brian Kurin noted the challenges posed by changing weather conditions, stating, “It’s difficult because the weather, it’s constantly changing. Holes are freezing up, new ones are opening up, so it’s hard to say what reliably could’ve been where someone fell through or something like that.”
