Authorities searching for missing man near Maskenthine

STANTON – Dive teams are combing the waters of a northeast Nebraska lake, looking for a man that went missing Sunday.

Stanton County Sheriff Mike Unger says a search began Sunday for a 55-year old man at Maskenthine Lake north of Stanton. Sheriff Unger says the man was last seen riding a motorcycle on the ice at the lake.

Unger says no trace of the man was found Sunday evening, but authorities did find an opening in the ice that may be related. Dive teams have been called in to assist with the search.

The lake is closed to the public at this time.
