New Westminster police are appealing for the public’s help in finding a missing man.
Police say there’s an “urgent need” to locate the man, who is identified as Gerry, and confirm his wellbeing. Gerry was last seen on Tuesday, Jan. 30 as he was loading his belongings into his vehicle.
“We are asking the public to help us locate Gerry,” said NWPD spokesperson Sgt. Andrew Leaver. “Gerry’s family is very concerned about his well-being. He may be in crisis and it’s important he’s located as soon as possible.”
Gerry is described as an Asian man, standing 5’6” tall, weighing approximately 140 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes.
According to police, Gerry may have left the Metro Vancouver region and travelled to Merritt. Gerry drives a 2004 silver Nissan Frontier having a silver canopy and a license plate of JV 7164.
“Gerry has been known to drive to remote locations for fishing and camping, so police are wanting those spending time on logging roads or in parks around the Merritt area to take note of his vehicle description,” said the NWPD news release.
If you see Gerry or his vehicle, investigators ask that you call 911 immediately.
