Rasmussen's daughter said the family has reason to believe "he is in the Hudson Valley at this point," according to information provided by the Cornwall Office of Emergency Management in Orange County on Friday morning, Aug. 26.
"My father suffers from PTSD and we would ask that if he is located or spotted, that the police are contacted IMMEDIATELY with the location and time of the sighting," Rasmussen's daughter stated. "He is in desperate need of crisis care and the police have the information to get that for him ASAP. It is possible that he is disoriented to time and place, please do not approach him - just contact the police."
Tonawanda Police may be reached at 716-692-2121. Cornwall Police may be reached at 845-534-8100.
