PARIS, ONEIDA COUNTY -- Crews have resumed the search for a missing hunter in Oneida County.

Investigators say Richard Knight, 64, of Paris, hasn't been seen since Wednesday morning.  He's described as 6'0, 200 lbs, with dark hair and brown eyes. Knight was last seen wearing a camouflage jacket, jeans, camouflage hat, boots, and gloves.

Search crews spent much of Thanksgiving looking for Knight. About 120 people started the search again Friday morning.

A command post has been set up at the Sauquoit Fire Department. Anyone with information is asked to call the Oneida County Sheriff's Office at 315-736-0141.
