The alert was issued by the Penobscot County Sheriff’s Office.

Bret Libby, 26, was last seen walking into the woods off Jo Mary Rd. around 12 a.m. Tuesday.

A press release from public safety spokeswoman Shannon Moss said Libby was not wearing clothing at the time.

The release provided no further information on the “crisis” the man was going through.

Police say if anyone sees Libby they should not approach him.
