John P. Seputis, 71, was last seen by a neighbor in Woodstock, Illinois, on January 8, 2023; friends reported him missing five days later on January 13. He is described as a white male, 6 feet 2 inches, about 150 pounds, with medium-length shaggy salt-and-pepper gray hair, a salt-and-pepper/gray beard, bushy eyebrows, brown eyes and a scar on his left wrist.

At the time he disappeared he was believed to be wearing a checkered flag racing jacket (black on the upper portion with writing on the left chest), dark khaki pants and dark shoes. He commonly wore a baseball-style hat and sometimes a Nascar jacket with the number 24. He had no vehicle or cell phone with him; friends said his Chase card was last used the day before he was seen. He was known to wander and may have had undiagnosed dementia or Alzheimer’s disease, and had no local family.

The Woodstock Police Department distributed his description and asked the public for help. His destination and current whereabouts remain unknown. If anyone in the Woodstock area remembers seeing a man matching this description or has information about his movements in early January 2023, please share what you know.
