RCMP say there’s still no sign of a Shelburne man missing since Oct. 21.
Eric Dorey, 48, was last seen at his Woodlawn Drive residence. He was wearing a navy blue winter jacket, blue jeans, a sand-coloured t-shirt and work boots.
A helicopter performed an aerial search of Shelburne and surrounding area on Nov. 2. The following Saturday an RCMP dog and handler from Yarmouth searched the area.
On Nov. 5 a Ground Search and Rescue team conducted a search behind Woodlawn Drive.
“There’s not too much more we can do unless we get information that there is a sighting somewhere,� said Sgt. Barry MacLellan from the Shelburne detachment.
“We’ve done everything we pretty well can at this particular time.�
Dorey is six-feet tall, weighs 160 pounds and has dark brown hair with some grey. He is balding on top, has no facial hair or tattoos and his top front tooth is broken off.
He frequently walks or hitchhikes on Highway 103 between Shelburne and Bridgewater and between Shelburne and Yarmouth.
