ORIGINAL: On March 17, 2021, at 1:35 p.m., a Rock County Sheriff’s Office deputy, conducting a routine security check at Storrs Lake Park in Milton, took a report that 66- year-old Kevin J.

Accordingly to family, Kevin left his residence in Milton at approximately 9:30 a.m. to hike the trails in Storrs Lake Park, which he does most days. Kevin had not returned home as of 11:30 a.m., which led family members to start searching for Mr. Doyle
During the ensuing hours, Sheriff’s Office personnel were assisted by individuals from Milton Fire Department, Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, Milton Police Department, Winnebago County Sheriff’s Office K9 Unit, Wisconsin K9 SOS, and M is 5’6” tall, 170 lbs., with brown hair and blue eyes.
