The search for Brandon Colligan has ended in tragedy.

The 26-year-old man went missing on Friday, June 10.

His body was located near his home in Royalton Friday, June 17, according to the Waupaca County Sheriff’s Office.

A Wisconsin missing persons alert issued shortly after his disappearance said Colligan was last seen meeting a friend in Stevens Point for coffee at about 9:45 a.m. on June 10. He exited the coffee shop to retrieve an unknown item and did not return.

His vehicle was found abandoned near a family member’s home in Royalton, with his phone and wallet still inside.

Deputies, dive teams and rescue workers searched the Little Wolf River, but were unable to find him.
