SNOHOMISH — Police still are asking for help finding Henry John Groeneveld, 63, who has been missing since Monday.
The case has been turned over to major crime detectives at the Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office, who investigate missing persons.
Detectives have exhausted initial leads on the Snohomish man, sheriff’s spokeswoman Shari Ireton said.
Based on the investigation so far, Groeneveld was last seen around 9:30 a.m. in the 400 block of Union Avenue. His wife spoke with him at their home and he may have left in an agitated state, said his daughter, Liz Dickson, 33. He brought no keys, no cell phone and no wallet. He left saying something about going to “the river.”
Police searched the Snohomish and Pilchuck rivers, as well as the local aquatic center. They deployed a helicopter and boats. Police dogs walked through the town. Surveillance footage from businesses turned up no additional leads.
Groeneveld is in good shape and walks almost everywhere he goes.
He is described as 5-foot-7 and about 150 pounds. He has gray hair and blue eyes. Groeneveld was last seen wearing a red knit cap, a brown pullover and blue postal worker pants.
If you see Groeneveld, call 911.
