Missing Lake Bluff Man's Abandoned Rental Car Found In Michigan

LAKE BLUFF, IL — Police in Michigan have found an abandoned car believed to have been rented by a Lake Bluff man missing for more than 10 days.

Russell Ulrey, 46, was last seen on the afternoon April 18 around the Lake Bluff Public Library, according to Lake Bluff police. Ulrey might be on a blue metallic bicycle, police said.

Ulrey is 5 feet, 7 inches tall and 160 pounds with salt-and-pepper colored hair, police said. He may be wearing a blue baseball cap with "Lake Bluff" written on it and carrying an orange messenger bag.

Earlier this week, a car believed to have been rented by Ulrey was found abandoned in Rudyard Township, a sparsely populated area of Chippewa County on the Upper Peninsula of Michigan., according to Michigan State Police.

Ulrey has previously talked about doing a Lake Superior Circle tour — a 1,300-mile trip around the lake — and could be on his bicycle in the Upper Peninsula, state police said in a release.

UPDATE: Ulrey was found Saturday in the woods of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan by a group of volunteers who saw a missing persons flyer, according to a family member.
