UPDATE: Niagara Regional Police say they have found the body of 89 year old Egon Epp in the area of Ricardo Street and Navy Hall in Niagara-on-the-Lake.

They will not be releasing anymore information out of respect to next-of-kin. 

Niagara Regional Police are asking for the public’s help tracking down a missing 89 year old man in Niagara-on-the-Lake.

They say Egon Epp left his home in the area of Charlotte and James Streets at 8:30 a.m. today to walk to the Post Office on Queen Street, but he never arrived.

He stands at about 5’6″ with a slender build, blond-grey hair and he walks with a cane.

Epp was last seen wearing a dark brown jacket with brown pants, beige suede shoes and a brimmed hat that says “Greek Style.”

Police believe he could be walking around in the Old Town area.

Anyone with information should contact Niagara Regional Police.
