Missing Austrian cyclist found by police this morning in Dabar

Croatian Times

After an all-night search, police in Lika-Senj county found this morning (Thurs) the 65-year-old Austrian cyclist who had been reported missing by a friend, 41, last night.

The two had started off together on bicycles at around 6pm from Licka Jasenica, but the older Austrian lagged behind and did not arrive in Otocac where his friend was waiting. He tried to contact him on his mobile phone, but there was no answer.

Police were able to locate the cyclist at 8:45am in Dabar. He said he had stopped when it became dark and he did not have good mobile-phone reception, the daily 24 Sata has reported.
