But Jones said nothing had been recovered from the crash site to link it to the missing plane -- or its unaccounted for owner, Richard Jahns of Point Pleasant Beach.
Jones said Jahns was believed to be the only person on board the plane when it took off from Allaire.
A small plane crashed at about 7 p.m. Saturday near the New Jersey shore.
A phone call to a number listed for Jahns wasn't immediately returned Sunday.
