Police requesting assistance to locate missing Abbotsford man

Chilliwack, BC: On July 24, 2011, Chilliwack RCMP received a call from a woman advising that her husband was missing from their campsite at Radium Campground at Chilliwack Lake.

Richard Charlie Korkowski went camping on July 20th with family at Chilliwack Lake. He left the campsite on July 23rd at 1:30 to go to town for fuel for their generator as they were spending one more night there. He never returned to the campsite nor to his residence in Abbotsford.

Richard Korkowski is described as Caucasian, 39 years old, 5'8" (173 cm) tall, weighs 190 pounds (86 kg), has brown hair and brown eyes. He was last seen wearing a bright yellow California t-shirt and jeans. He does not have a cell phone or a jacket with him. He was driving a grey / champagne coloured 2005 GMC Sierra 4x4 extended cab short box pickup with heavy mud treads and black rims with silver around the edges and BC licence plates G50200.

This is very out of character for Mr. Korkowski and he has no history of this kind of behaviour. The family is very concerned for his well being and are pleading for help in locating him.

Please contact Chilliwack RCMP at 604-792-4611 if you have any information.

Photos of Richard Korkowski and his truck, as well as a Missing Poster created by the family are attached.
