The two teens were last together Sunday before being reported missing, according to the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office.
In an attempt to find the Grefe and Brown, authorities utilized search dogs, UTV and ATV patrols, and various other agencies that could provide additional help, the Oneida County Sheriff said.
