Search Postponed For Missing Man In Fentress County

Search crews have still not located a man who went missing in Fentress County more than a week ago.

Over the weekend, crews from across multiple regions assisted with the search for 57-year-old Danny Ray Hall.

Hall went missing after going ginseng hunting in southwest Fentress County near Sam Beaty Road.

“As of yesterday evening, we still have not found anything,” Fentress County Emergency Management Agency Director James Bilbrey said. “We have talked to the family and decided to postpone the search until a later date due to the weather today.”

Hall is described as 5-foot-9-inches tall and 135-pounds. He was last seen wearing blue jeans, a T-shirt, tan ball cap and black boots.

Anyone with information about his whereabouts should contact the Fentress County Sheriff’s Office.
