The Pine County Sheriff's Office is asking for the public's help in locating a 22-year-old Sandstone man who hasn't been seen since March 3.
Kenneth Scott Kleppen left his residence in his vehicle on that date. His vehicle was located in Robinson Park in Pine County on March 5. Authorities searched the area "but Kleppen has not been located and authorities are concerned for his welfare," according a statement from the sheriff's office on Thursday.
It's not clear why the sheriff's office waited two weeks to make the case public.
Kleppen is described as 6 feet, 1 inch tall weighing 240 pounds with blonde hair and blue eyes. Anyone with information on his whereabouts is asked to call 911 or the Pine County Sheriff's Office at (320) 629-8380.
