Alaska State troopers revealed on Thursday that “after multiple days of searching with aerial assets, boats, and ground searchers, no additional signs” of 26-year-old Jazmin James has been found. As a result, it was announced that as of Wednesday night the search for his remains has been suspended, and his information has been placed in the missing person’s clearinghouse.

It had been hidden from view and was only found after the tide subsided. Nothing further was found at that location, and searchers reported that there were no tracks leading away from where the snowmachine was found.
