The Douglas County Sheriff's Office has suspended a search for a 62-year-old Indian Hills man missing for nearly two weeks.

Dennis Kelly was last seen at 10:30 a.m. Jan. 14 by his wife who reported him missing two days later.

She told deputies she last saw Kelly when he left their home to take a walk in the Indian Hills/Jacks Valley area of Douglas County.

Sgt. Jim Halsey said the search was suspended pending further information. He said Kelly's wife had been questioned about the disappearance and was not a suspect.

"We have no reason to believe there was foul play," Halsey said.

He said an investigation into the disappearance was ongoing.

The Douglas County Sheriff's Search and Rescue will return to the area this weekend, and cover new ground as part of training, Halsey said.

He said Kelly was in good physical health at the time of his disappearance, but suffered from depression, according to his wife.

Kelly is 5 feet, 10 inches tall, weighing approximately 170 pounds. He has a medium build with blue eyes, gray hair and a long, gray beard. He was wearing olive-green pants and a green flannel shirt when last seen.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Douglas County Sheriff's Office dispatch center, 782-9935, ext. 7.
