The search resumes this morning for A 12-year-old Boy Scout who is missing in Wilkes County. Police said Michael Auberry, of Greensboro, N.C.,was last seen at about 11 a.m. Saturday after a hike in Doughton State Park -- near Stone Mountain State Park. Auberry was part of the Greensboro Boy Scout troop 230 and was described as Caucasian with reddish-brown hair, about 5 feet 4 inches and weighing 110 lbs.
Investigators said he was last seen wearing blue jeans, a red jacket with reflector tape on it, and a dark North Carolina TarHeel baseball cap. Rescue crews said they are searching the trails in Doughton Park as Auberry's father waits at the troop's campsite. Emergency managers said the area is unique in that the elevation changes 2,000 feet in a five-mile period. Rescuers said they expected two more dog teams and six more counties are to join the already 15-agency search for the boy. Stone Mountain State Park covers nearly 14,000 acres.
