New Westminster police are asking for the public’s help in finding a missing senior with dementia.
Mathieu Joseph Racine was last seen at his home in the 400 block of Third Avenue at approximately 1:15 p.m. on Thursday.
Police note Racine, 76, suffers from dementia and glaucoma. He has wandered in the past and has been found either walking the streets or inside 24-hour coffee shop businesses.
Racine is described as an African-Canadian man with dark skin, standing six-feet tall and weighing approximately 200 pounds. He is balding and has greying hair. He was last seen wearing a blue long- sleeve shirt and grey dress pants.
Police said he does not have a cell phone, and does not have access to a vehicle. He also likely doesn’t have identification as his wallet is still at his home.
While NWPD are actively searching for the senior, anyone who sees him, or thinks they’ve seen him is asked to call 911 immediately.
