Reward doubled in search for missing student

(AP) - The reward for information on a University of St. Thomas student from Eveleth who went missing more than 10 days ago has been doubled to $10,000.

The university announced the increased reward for 19-year-old Dan Zamlen on Thursday.

Zamlen has been missing since early April 5. He was last known to be walking along the Mississippi River bluffs after leaving a party.

More than 1,000 volunteers have helped search the area in cooperation with the Zamlen family, the St. Paul Police Department and the university.

On Thursday, volunteers searched parks along the river and throughout the area.

Zamlen is 6-foot-1 and weighs 175 pounds. He was last seen wearing a dark blue and black fleece jacket, blue jeans and brown Dr. Marten shoes.
