SEWARD, Neb.-Law enforcement authorities say a Seward County man who had been reported missing was found deceased.

The Seward County Sheriff's Office said a missing person call came in on Friday at around 12:30 p.m.

It was reported that Frederick Rolfsmeier, 84, of Milford, was missing and may be in need of medical attention.

The sheriff's office called the Nebraska State Patrol K-9 unit and Seward County Sheriff's Posse for assistance.

After receiving multiple tips about Rolfsmeier's possible whereabouts, officials were able to narrow the search area and located Rolfsmeier, deceased, along a roadway.

Officials said it appeared Rolfsmeier died of natural causes and no foul play is suspected.
