A focused, multi-pronged search for a missing Massachusetts journalism professor off the coast of Maine has been suspended, officials said.

The Maine Marine Patrol and the Maine Warden Service said they have found no evidence of Wiley Davi.

Davi, 57, English and media studies professor at Bentley University in Waltham, Massachusetts, was last seen November 15 on Peak’s Island.

Authorities said they didn’t know why Davi would have been hanging out on Peaks.

But the New York Post is reporting that Davi owns property there.

At the height of the search nearly 50 law enforcement officers were looking for the missing professor.

Officials searched trails and wooded areas on the island last week.

Portland Police say they have found no evidence of foul play, which suggests either accident or suicide.
