VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) – The VPD is hoping you can help them find a missing elderly man.
Chatsun Tam, 76, suffers from dementia, as well as other medical conditions. He was last seen at his care home on Union Street near Campbell Avenue at 7 p.m. yesterday.
Tam is described as Asian, 5′ 5″ and 155 lbs. He has grey hair and brown eyes. He also walks with what police describe as a “quick shuffle.”
He was last seen wearing a long sleeved white shirt, mint green pants and a hospital-style identification bracelet on his wrist.
Police say Tam likes to spend time in Chinatown and Strathcona. If you see him, you’re asked to call 9-1-1, ask for both police and ambulance, and wait with him until officers arrive.
