The family of an elderly man who went missing on the weekend in Port Coquitlam is offering a cash reward to anyone with information that leads to his whereabouts.
Jafar Imenpour, who is visiting from Iran, did not return from what was supposed to be a 15-minute walk in the Toronto Street area shortly after 5 p.m. on Sunday.
He left the home he was visiting without his wallet, money or a phone. Mehrdad Imanpour, Jafar's son, said the family is distraught and is offering $5,000 for information that helps locate his father.
"It is a bad situation," he told The Tri-City News. "We are just so confused. We don't know what else to do."
Imenpour is described as an Iranian male, five-foot 11-inches tall weighing approximately 190 pounds. He has balding white hair, a white mustache and was last seen wearing a dark blue baseball hat, black jacket, blue jeans, black runners and glasses.
Anyone with any information is asked to call the Coquitlam RCMP at 604-945-1550. Information can also be reported anonymously to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
