State Troopers say their efforts to locate a missing man have been suspended.  Yesterday, trooper spokesperson Beth Ipsen said that crews were unable to locate him, and suspended the search indefinitely. 

Local business owner, Robert Smithwick, who has been missing since last week, is believed to be the man.  Troopers have been unable to confirm that, though.  Smithwick, 41, is the owner of Pizza Boys.  He has not been seen since Wednesday, and, his vehicle was located near The Pillars dock. On Wednesday, a man matching his description was seen struggling near the dock.  He went under, and, was not seen again.
