A two-week search for a man reported missing near Borumba Dam ended in tragedy on Monday.<\/p>\n

Police located the body of 49-year-old Noosa resident Bruce Skewes.<\/p>\n

There are no suspicious circumstances and police will prepare a report for the Coroner.<\/p>\n

Gympie Police Inspector Steve Donnelly praised the efforts of SES volunteer searchers and police officers.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis was a protracted land, air and water search in very challenging terrain,” Insp Donnelly said.<\/p>\n

“We had our best search co-ordinators on this and the dedication and perseverance of the SES teams on the ground has brought closure for the family and friends.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr Skewes had been camping near the lookout on Yabba Creek Road.<\/p>\n

However, he has not made contact with family or friends since February 5.<\/p>\n

On Friday, officers from the Police Dive Unit were brought in to join the search.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
