West Kelowna RCMP are asking people in the area of the 2000 block of Peters Road to help them in their search for James Wood, who has been missing since Nov. 8.
“The day James went missing, he was not suitably dressed for the elements and the weather has turned colder,” RCMP Cpl. Tammy Lobb said in a news release. “We ask residents living in the 2000 block of Peters Road area to check their properties, sheds and outbuildings in the event James found shelter.”
Police and Central Okanagan Search and Rescue along with dog teams and a helicopter have searched near where Wood lived at the foot of the 2000 block of Peters Road as well as wilderness areas he’s known to frequent.
The search has been stood down awaiting further information.
“It has been a number of days now since James was reported missing," the news release says. "James has medical needs and he requires medication."
He’s described as a 27-year-old Caucasian male, 5’8” tall, 126 lbs. with brown hair and green eyes. He was last seen wearing pyjama pants and a button up T-shirt.
Anyone with information is asked to call their local police or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
