Law enforcement officials in Bucks County are continuing an ongoing search for four men who have gone missing – one of whom hasn’t been seen or heard from since last Wednesday.

According to the Newtown Township Police Department, Patrick, the youngest of the missing males, has not been seen or heard from since about 6 p.m. on Wednesday, July 5.

“He has had no contact with his family or friends and he has not shown up for work – all of which is not normal for Jimi,” law enforcement officials wrote.
