The Coast Guard searched for a possible missing person Wednesday after a red Huffy Eagle Sport bicycle was found unclaimed on the Washington State Ferry Kitsap.

The bicycle was abandoned on the Bremerton to Seattle ferry. WSF employees were unable to verify if the owner of the bicycle exited in Seattle.

A helicopter crew and a boat crew started to search at about 9:30 a.m. after ferry crews conducted a search of the Kitsap and found no one associated with the bicycle. Officials do not know who owns the bike.

The search was suspended Wednesday afternoon.

Anyone with information regarding the owner of the bike should call the WSF Operations Center at 206-515-3441.
