Juneau man Oscar Griffin found dead after two-day search
Alaska Seadogs volunteers found Oscar Griffin, a Juneau resident reported missing two days earlier, deceased Thursday morning after fireworks forced a K-9 search to pause the night before.
Griffin was last seen leaving his Juneau residence on June 29 at approximately 6 a.m. His direction of travel was unknown. Alaska State Troopers received a missing person report July 1 at 3:20 p.m. and contacted Alaska Seadogs, a volunteer K-9 search-and-rescue organization, to attempt a scent track from the residence. Fireworks activity that evening prevented the dog from working the track. The search resumed the following morning.
At approximately 6:30 a.m. Thursday, Alaska Seadogs called Juneau troopers to report Griffin had been located and was deceased. "Juneau Police Department was contacted for the death investigation and AST conducted the next of kin notification," Alaska Department of Public Safety said.
