Cambridge, Ne - Early Sunday morning, (July 2, 2023) at approximately 2:05 am, the Frontier County Sheriff’s office received a reported sighting of Noah Koch, who had been missing since early Friday morning north of Cambridge near Medicine Creek Reservoir. Law Enforcement from multiple areas were dispatched to the location near the intersection of Road 728 and Road 402. Furnas County Deputy Huntley arrived on scene first and was able to make contact with Noah. Deputy Huntley transported Noah to his home where he was reunited with his family safe and unharmed.
Koch's family along with emergency management had organized a search party on Saturday morning after they had found water bottles believed to have been with Noah.
