An empty kayak was found about 11 a.m. on the Middletown side of the Navesink River in Red Bank, according to initial reports. That is directly across from the Fair Haven Yacht Works, where an emotionally disturbed person had been reported missing.

New Jersey State Police were called to assist Fair Haven police in the water search, a NJSP spokesman said.
