Karl Neff, 51, was last seen at about 2:00 a.m. on January 3, 2022, leaving his Port Colborne home near Saturn Road and Apollo Drive. He has connections in the St. Catharines area and his family reported the initial lack of contact was out of character.

The Niagara Regional Police Service appealed to the public for help. Karl was described as a Caucasian male, six feet tall, thin build, bald with brown eyes. When last seen he wore a light brown camouflage jacket, blue camouflage pants and large camouflage rubber boots. Rumored sightings in the Niagara region were reported but family said those were not confirmed.

Later reports say Karl was located and is safe, bringing relief to his family and community. If anyone had information from the time he was missing that wasn’t already shared with police, do you have details that could help clarify the timeline of his disappearance?
