Peel Regional Police are asking the public for help to find a 76-year-old man who disappeared Thursday.

Police said Adrien Boudreau was last seen leaving his home on Dalraith Crescent in Brampton at about 3:30 p.m.

He left to get his car looked at but failed to return home.

Boudreau’s family and investigators are becoming increasingly concerned about his well-being because he may be in the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease and he may be lost or confused, police said Friday.

Boudreau is white and five-foot-five with a medium build, short grey hair and blue eyes. He was last seen wearing blue jeans and a blue bomber-style jacket with a mustard trim and the word “Hockey” across the back.

The man’s car is a 2004 Buick LeSabre that is light bronze in colour and has Ontario licence 436SDO.

Police are asking anyone with information about Boudreau’s whereabouts to call investigators at 905-453-3311 ext. 2133, their local police service or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
