Local authorities are involved in an intensive search for Frederick Richard Neel, 34, of Mexico Farms, who has not been seen since leaving his home in an upset mood Sunday morning at 6 AM.

Nell was wearing shorts and a tee shirt, but did not appear to be armed.

A command post was set up in the parking lot of Homeland Security on PPG Road, which is only a quarter mile from the Neel residence.  The search involves personnel from Maryland State Police, Allegany County Sheriff's Office, Maryland Natural Resources Police and the National Park Service.  Firemen from District 16, Oldtown, Cresaptown and Bowling Green were also involved in the effort.

If you know where Neel is, or have seen him recently, call 301-777-5959.
