Missing Person: Hongsang (Howard) Rho, 64
Rho has early onset dementia and requires regular medication. His disappearance is also out of character and, as such, family and police are concerned for his welfare.
Rho is known to enjoy walks in the green space and on the walking trails east of his residence and may have walked into the nearby ravine. Family, friends and police have been actively searching green spaces across the city but have been unable to locate him.
