Toronto police are appealing for the public’s help in finding a missing 90-year-old man in the city’s east end.
Joseph Ng was last seen just before midnight on Jan. 29 in the area of Coxwell Avenue and Gerrard Street East, and police say they are concerned for his safety.
“Unfortunately, Joseph is still missing, and the search continues,” a police spokesperson told CityNews on Monday. “There are no other updates on this at the moment. A Command Post has not been set up.”
Ng is described as five-feet-five with white hair and brown eyes. He was last seen wearing a beige coat, a red-and-black striped vest, blue jeans, and blue rubber walking shoes.
“[On Sunday], we released that he has medical conditions that require medication. He does not have this medication with him,” police added. “We are deeply concerned for his safety.”
Investigators say Ng may be driving a greyish-blue Toyota Corolla with Ontario licence plate DCKX933.
Anyone with information is asked to contact the police.
