Around midnight, the man was brought out of the woods by ERT members near Juniper Point Road in Selwyn Township and was assessed by paramedics. He was transported to Peterborough Regional Health Centre as a precaution.

OPP said Thursday morning the man is the same individual who was reported lost in woods earlier this year in the area.
