Mounties in the Fraser Valley are asking the public for help locating a missing man last seen in a boat on the Harrison River Thursday evening.
Patrick Jordan, a 48-year-old Chilliwack resident, was operating a boat in "the Kilby area" around 7 p.m., according to a news release issued by Agassiz RCMP on Friday.
Police shared a photo of Jordan, describing him as a white man with grey hair and blue eyes who stands 5'5" and weighs 146 pounds.
In an email to CTV News, Upper Fraser Valley Regional Detachment spokesperson Sgt. Mike Sargent said Jordan's boat had been recovered from a sandbar in the river, but the missing man was not on board.
