Maine Wardens Find a Missing Snowmobiler Dead Near Rangeley Lake

The Maine Warden Service is asking for the public's help locating a man who went missing Saturday on a snowmobile.

UPDATE - WGME-TV reports Mr. Rogers' body was found on the shoreline near Rangeley Lake. Investigators say alcohol appears to have been a factor in the crash that happened as Rogers was going too fast and hit some trees on the shore.

Who is Missing?

According to a post on the department's Facebook page, Stephen Rogers, 43, was last seen in the Oquossoc area of Maine on Saturday, February 18th. At the time that he went missing, Rogers had a loaner snowmobile from Oquossoc Marine. The one pictured here is not the actual sled but similar to this one.
