Hamilton police are searching for an involuntary patient who has gone missing from St. Joseph’s West 5th campus.
Police say Ray Newell is unlawfully at large and wanted on a warrant of committal, and say he may pose a threat to the community.
Police are asking for the public’s help in locating the 40-year-old Newell, who failed to return to St. Joe’s West 5th campus on July 25.
Without his medication, police say Newell is at a greater risk to public and there is concern for his safety.
He is been known to visit Hamilton and Montreal and is described as Black, six-feet-two-inches tall, with a medium build and a shaved head.
Newell has a number of tattoos, including a spade above his left eye, a microphone, flower and cards on his left arm, and a mythical creature on his back.
Anyone who sees Newell is being asked to not approach him and call police immediately.
