He is described as:
Caucasian male
70 years old
Brown Hair
Blue eyes
161 lbs (73 kg)

The news release says Vermette has tattoos of a cat on his upper right arm with “Lucky” inscribed below and a coyote and moon and a dagger through a red rose on his left arm.
Police say he was known to wear glasses.
“Any information as to his whereabouts is being requested by the RCMP to aid in the ongoing investigation,” the release says.
A reward of up to $2,000 may be offered through Crime Stoppers for tips leading to arrest.
Police say calls to Crime Stoppers are kept confidential and anonymous.
