The Fond du Lac County Sheriff’s Office is currently investigating a missing persons case, with the following information being reported .

On Friday, October 15, 2021, at 10:30 p.m. a female, her adult male friend (Jordan – 24 years old) and his 4-month-old infant (Serenity)were in a vehicle involved in a minor crash into a ditch on Brown Road west of Townline Road in the town of Lamartine.  


Jordan and his baby, who was removed from the vehicle and carried in a car seat, left the vehicle and walked into a marshy area and the female lost sight of them a short time later.

She was eventually able to get the vehicle out of the ditch and drove back home to the city of Fond du Lac.  After being unable to contact Jordan on his cell phone for several hours, she contacted the Sheriff’s Office at 2:30am.  

Deputies immediately responded to the crash scene and began searching the area.  They located the car seat, empty, in a wooded area north of the crash scene.  As of this time, we have been unable to locate or make contact with Jordan or Serenity.  Jordan was last seen wearing a dark blue hoodie and gray sweatpants.  Serenity was bundled in blankets.

Emergency personnel including deputies, multiple fire departments, EMS, drones, and a State Patrol aircraft are being used to search a large area north of Brown Rd. between Esterbrook Rd. and Nelson Rd.  We are asking the public to stay away from the area so that emergency crews can conduct their search unimpeded.    

 

If anyone has any information about the whereabouts of Jordan or Serenity, please contact the            Fond du Lac County Sheriff’s Office at 920-929-3390.
