Reid Ross Chesney, 51, was last seen in Halifax, Nova Scotia, on the afternoon of April 4, 2016. A slim man about 5 feet 11 inches with long auburn hair and an auburn-and-grey beard, he was observed near the 2100-block of Barrington Street at about 4 p.m. after leaving a men’s shelter. He wore a blue hat and a navy trench coat that day.

Chesney maintained very little contact with family and led a transient lifestyle, which contributed to a delay before he was reported missing. Halifax Regional Police issued a public appeal after days of no contact, and investigators said there was no information suggesting foul play, while expressing concern for his welfare. The file on his disappearance remains open and there have been no substantive public updates.

If anyone knew Reid’s routines in Halifax, saw him on April 4, 2016, or has information about his whereabouts since then, please come forward to assist the ongoing inquiry.
