It’s been 10 days since missing Rutgers student Morty Wortman was last seen.

Police in Jackson Township, along with his relatives and friends from college, have been searching a wooded area near his family home without any luck finding him.

Wortman’s brother, Ivan Marks, says that he’s growing concerned that the search area, a wooded section of Jackson Township in Ocean County, might be the wrong place to be looking.

“I don’t think he’s in the woods. I think he is somewhere else. I don’t want to assume the worst,” said Ivan Marks.

Marks believes it may be time to search elsewhere.

“We’ve been scraping and sweeping through the entire wooded area and again it’s a lot of ground to cover," says Marks. “We have those lingering questions, is there another location to search? Is there anywhere else we can get more answers?”

Morty Wortman is a 22-year-old senior at Rutgers, New Brunswick.

This semester, his brother says Wortman had bene commuting to school for classes.

He says Morty’s car was discovered in the parking lot of the Regional Day School in Jackson on Nov. 21.

Ivan Marks says that at 10:30 p.m. the night he was last seen, Morty was spotted on surveillance camera getting into a car with a friend at that school in Jackson.

But to this point, Ivan says that friend, not yet identified by police, hasn’t helped find his missing brother.

Ivan is seven years older than his brother.

Despite the age gap, the two were close growing up.

He’s very proud of his brother Morty who is studying landscape architecture at Rutgers and getting ready to graduate.

But after 10 days, he just wants to hear that Morty is still alive.
