He’s 45 years old. Friends tell us he actually has been missing since parking his car at Camp Long on Friday. If you see him or have information, call 911 or the missing persons unit at 206-684-5582 and refer to case #21-145895.

ADDED WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON: The search has come to a sad end.

Have they throughly searched Camp Long?

A group of very close friends along with SPD canvassed Camp Long as best we could, but weren’t prepared for a much more technical search through the camp. We are hopeful a K-9 unit can help with a thorough search.

Odd that this was posted as an Amber Alert on the signs over highway 99 near the stadiums. Regardless, I hope Brian is safely found very soon.

Is his car still at Camp Long? Or is that the last place someone saw it? I am hoping they find him. Who saw him in Beacon Hill? Was this after they saw his car at Camp Long on Friday?

I just left camp long and there were at least 5 search and rescues dog who were just starting their search for him along with a few police officers. His car has a smashed in window as well

Thank you for updating. I dearly hope that he’s found safe and sound.

Madison, Thank you for the update. I am hoping that he is found safe. The broken window could just be vandals at night as they seem to love parking lots to break into cars.

Sorry, comment time is over.
