Switzer was last seen on the evening of Dec. 25. Security footage from the apartment building showed him leaving with a bag of garbage, and further footage placed him at a nearby gas station just past midnight on Boxing Day.

Police are hoping to speak with the man who returned the wallet to employees of Little Texas to help with its investigation.

“The bar staff have been very helpful. They provided us their security video, pictures of the guy so we can get it out to the media to try and locate this individual,” Finn said.
