He is described as being six feet, two inches tall, with brown hair and eyes and weighing 170 pounds.

He was last seen wearing blue jeans with torn knees, a yellow t-shirt with a black, zippered hooded sweatshirt, and blue, flat-bottom shoes.

School officials noted that there may be increased law enforcement activity on campus related to this situation.

A large water search is also expected to resume on Tuesday at Lake Carnegie.

Crews began searching the water around midnight early Tuesday morning, saying a missing person’s phone was pinging in the area.

They were stationed at a boat ramp off Princeton Kingston Road.

Police were using sonar units and drones from Hamilton Township to assist, as well as K-9 units.

Anyone with information on Blackburn is asked to contact the Department of Public Safety at (609) 258-1000
