State Police Resume Search for Missing NJ Cop

Jason Sill was last seen taking his boat out from a Wildwood marina

State Police officers have resumed searching for a New Jersey police officer who disappeared after taking his boat out into the ocean.   

The Coast Guard stopped looking for Middle Township Patrolman Jason Sill of Cape May Court House in the waters off Wildwood at 10 p.m. Tuesday.   

Sill was last seen taking his boat out from a Wildwood marina at 11 a.m. Monday. An hour later, a passing boater saw it empty in the water, and called the Coast Guard.   

The keys were still in it and two fishing poles were on board as well.     

There's no word on how long the State Police will continue looking.
