RCMP south of Edmonton are asking for the public’s help finding a man in his 80s, last seen Tuesday evening.

Beaumont RCMP said Leonard Labonte, 82, was reported missing Tuesday evening.

He was last seen leaving the Beaumont Medical Clinic at about 5:15 p.m., and had not been seen or heard from since.

His family said Labonte not returning home is uncharacteristic of his behaviour, and he suffers from a medical condition for which he’s required to take medication for.

Labonte is described as:

  • 170 cm (5’7”) tall
  • Weighing about 66 kg (146 lbs)
  • Grey hair
  • Blue eyes

He was also last seen wearing:

  • A light button-up cardigan (black or grey in colour)
  • Light-coloured shirt underneath (either white or light blue)
  • Black pants
  • Black leather shoes with Velcro straps
  • No hat, coat or glasses seen

Police said Labonte was driving a red 2001 4-door Oldsmobile vehicle with an Alberta licence plate number WZG 313.

Anyone with information on the man’s whereabouts or disappearance is asked to call Beaumont RCMP at 780-949-7410, or their local police.

UPDATE (26/02/15): Labonte was found dead Thursday morning.
