DOVER-FOXCROFT — The Piscataquis County Sheriff’s Department says an Austrian tourist missing for a week while on a motorcycle trip in Maine has been found.

Officials say 25-year-old Johannes Stummer was found walking on a logging road Thursday. He was last seen on March 22 in Big Moose Township, north of Moosehead Lake. He was reported missing a day later after he failed to return to the Moose Mountain Inn in Greenville.

Stummer rode his motorcycle throughout Europe last year and planned to tour the U.S. this year. He arrived on March 1 and traveled through Vermont and part of Canada.

Police were interviewing Stummer today, and it wasn’t immediate clear what happened. He had been traveling on a black Suzuki motorcycle bearing an Austrian license plate.
