Canada Global(Web News)The missing youthA Montreal, Ontario family is asking for the public’s help in finding their 22-year-old son who went missing during a ski trip in Mont-Tremblant, Que.
Liam Toman disappeared at about 3 a.m. on February 2 after leaving a bar in the ski village north of Montreal for dinner and drinks with friends.
His parents and stepmother say he was last seen on camera walking to his hotel, but there was no footage of him going back inside. The last call and text from his phone was at about 3:15 a.m., and he hasn’t used his bank account, social media or phone since.
His mother, Kathleen Toman of Balsam Lake, Ont., said he had been texting his parents throughout the evening and was generally in frequent contact with family and friends.
He keeps in touch with us and tells us about his fun and what he’s doing,” she said in a phone interview. “It’s not Liam’s nature not to text us.”
His family has been searching for Toman since he went missing, while Quebec provincial police have searched nearby areas by land, helicopter and water.
On March 22, his parents say Toman’s wallet was found outside Mont-Tremblant, where he was last seen. That led to a second police search, which included helicopters, dogs, ATVs, searchers on horseback and volunteer search and rescue groups. A
provincial police spokesman confirmed that the police investigation is ongoing, and includes interviewing witnesses and reviewing video footage.
The family has spent several days in Mont-Tremblant, handing out flyers and raising awareness about their son’s disappearance. They have also launched a website, liamtoman.com, which I include photos and a timeline of their last movements.
His father, Chris Toman, says the Mont-Tremblant area is packed, and the family is hoping someone may have seen something that could help them determine their son’s whereabouts. “
It’s a popular spot, lots of foot traffic, lots of people looking at things, lots of young adults interacting,” he said. “It seems like someone saw something or someone should remember something.
The family is asking anyone who was in the Tremblant area around the time of his disappearance to check any camera footage, including doorbell or dash cameras, or to call provincial police or Crime Stoppers if they remember seeing or hearing anything related to Toman.
Toman is described as 5-foot-9, weighs 132 pounds with light brown hair and blue-brown eyes. When he disappeared, he was wearing a black and dark green coat, black pants, a green plaid sweater, and a white and black striped hat.
The family website says Tomlin graduated from Niagara College last spring with an electronics technician diploma and is described as a social person who enjoys skiing, golfing, playing video games, learning about his car and spending time with his friends.
Liam’s parents and Chris’ wife, Lara, say they are focused on finding him, and are grateful for the support they have received. However, the wait has been frustrating.
