He is known to frequent popular local beaches, including John Brewers Beach and Coki Point Beach.

Details about his clothing at the time of disappearance remain unknown. Law enforcement officials are urging the public to come forward with any information regarding his whereabouts.

    I don’t mean to sound negative, but a body was recently discovered in St. Thomas wrapped in plastic. The identity is still unknown. If anyone has a missing relative, it’s important to check all available sources and contact the authorities.
