Jean Paul Leroux was 55 when he vanished from Montreal on May 28, 2001. He was last seen that morning leaving his partner’s home wearing a dark blue silk coat, blue jeans and brown shoes. He is described as a Caucasian man, five feet ten inches, about 181 pounds, heavy build, brown hair turning grey, blue eyes and a Capricorn tattoo on his shoulder blade.

A week after his disappearance his vehicle was found abandoned in the parking lot of the Saint-Leonard shopping centre. No contact or confirmed sightings have been reported since he was last seen. Investigators with the Service de police de la Ville de Montréal say information gathered points to possible involvement with individuals tied to organized crime, which complicates the circumstances of his disappearance.

The case remains open and his family continues without answers. If anyone knew Jean Paul, his routine, associates, or saw his car at Saint-Leonard around late May 2001, please share what you know.
