Middlebury Police plan to reevaluate the ground conditions today before they decide whether to launch another ground search for a Middlebury College student who has been missing for more than a month.
Nineteen-year-old Nicholas Garza, of Albuquerque, New Mexico, was reported missing by his mother, five days after he was last seen leaving a friend’s dormitory just after 11 p.m. on February 5th.
Middlebury Police Chief Tom Hanley says that since that time there has been no trace of Garza.
Hanley says that in some locations on the Middlebury College campus there’s still two feet of snow on the ground.
The chief says that once ground conditions improve, it would take a day or so to get a ground search together.
