From Staff And Wire Reports

Canadian authorities need help in finding a missing Trail, British Columbia, man.

Joseph Alfred Langman disappeared the morning of Feb. 9 after dropping his daughter off at school, according to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. His family hasn’t heard from him since.

Langman, 44, was last seen driving a forest green 1994 Dodge Caravan with British Columbia license PRN-842. The van has a white-and-yellow Kootenay Broadcasting System sticker on the back window.

Langman is about 5 feet 10 inches tall, 190 pounds, with blue eyes, short graying hair and a moustache. He wears silver-rimmed glasses.

He recently had surgery on his leg and may be suffering stress related to that, authorities said. Langman has been known to travel to northeast Washington on day trips.

Anyone with information on Langman’s whereabouts is asked to call the Royal Canadian Mounted Police at (250) 364-2566.
