Chris Metallic, a 20-year-old student at Mount Allison University, vanished from Sackville, New Brunswick in the early morning of November 25, 2012. He was last seen leaving a house party on Allison Avenue at about 1:30 a.m., reportedly intending to walk the roughly twenty minutes back to his residence on Maple Avenue. He left his shoes and cell phone at the party and was wearing blue jeans, a blue zip-up hoodie, and borrowed flip-flops, unsuitable for November weather.

A witness later reported seeing a man matching Chris’s description walking along Upper Aboujagane Road around 5:30 a.m., some 23 kilometres north of Sackville on foot. The flip-flops he was wearing were found on the roadside and footprints identified as his led toward the nearby Tantramar River. Extensive searches with police dogs, ground teams and helicopters, and later an underwater recovery team, found no further trace.

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police list the disappearance as an active investigation, and tips and renewed searches have continued. The investigation has stated the disappearance is not considered suspicious and foul play is not suspected. If anyone knew Chris, saw him that night, or has information about the Upper Aboujagane Road area, please come forward.
