Police are searching for a missing 32-year-old Vaughan man who was last seen on Tuesday night at a local soccer game.
Sina Parsi was last spotted at approximately 10:15 p.m. on June 9 leaving the area of Teston Road and Highway 400. Police say he left the soccer game driving his 2012 black Dodge Ram pick-up truck.
According to Parsi's wife, he didn’t return home that night and she called police.
On Thursday, officers were able to trace his cellphone signal to a strip mall parking lot located in the area of Jane Street and Eglinton Avenue West. Police didn't find Parsi's phone, but located his truck in the parking lot.
Parsi's family say police told them security surveillance camera footage taken from a Tim Hortons restaurant at the strip mall shows the 32-year-old man walking through the parking lot past his truck and towards a wooded area.
Another security camera also shows Parsi entering a bank on the other side of the Tim Hortons just prior to that. Bank records show he withdrew $400.
On Thursday, investigators found Parsi's wallet in the wooded area, but wouldn't disclose if anything had been taken from it.
Parsi is a roofing contractor. His friends and family describe him as a well-liked man whose disappearance is out of character.
On Friday afternoon, York Regional Police confirmed their homicide unit has taken over the investigation, but said that at this point it's still considered a missing persons case.
Meanwhile, Parsi's wife said she is trying her best to remain positive.
"I have to be hopeful," she said. "He's my husband, best friend -- he's everything to me. I just want him healthy and alive. I'm not going to think of anything else. I just want him healthy."
Parsi is described as Middle Eastern, 5'6" tall, with a tanned complexion, a slim build and short black hair.
He was last seen wearing a blue polo shirt and black jogging pants but police say he may have had a change of clothes with him.
Investigators believe that Parsi does not have his cell phone with him and has not made contact with friends or family since he went missing.
Anyone with information is asked to contact York Regional Police at 1-866-876-5423, extension 7441 or by calling Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.
