Lamèque RCMP says Joseph Aldonia Chiasson was last seen on Aug. 10 on JD Gauthier Boulevard in Shippagan and was reported missing to police on Wednesday.

Police say Chiasson has a medical condition that could make him appear disoriented and behave unpredictable.

Chiasson is described as about five-foot-eleven, weighing approximately 150 pounds, with brown eyes, short grey hair and a mustache. Police say he also wears prescription eyeglasses and has a tattoo in the shape of a heart with an arrow on his left forearm.
