44-year-old Jody Bert of Florida went missing early Wednesday morning from downtown Baton Rouge.
Exactly four weeks after Nathan Millard disappeared, Baton Rouge Police are looking for a Florida man who was last seen at 12:45 Wednesday morning. Sgt L’Jean McKneely said 44-year-old Jody Bert was traveling back home with his family after visiting relatives in Oklahoma became ill and stopped for the night.
“They went to a hotel downtown, and he dropped his family off, went to park the car, and after some time of him not returning to the hotel the family became concerned,” said McKneely.
Bert’s wallet, phone, and car were found in a nearby parking garage.
McNeely wouldn’t disclose Bert’s medical condition but said it could be related to his disappearance.
“With this particular case we also feel that at this time it might be due to his medical condition, or something else, but not to be alarmed and we need your assistance,” said McNeely.
Police are searching the area where he was last seen and McNeely said detectives are gathering and viewing surveillance camera footage from the area in an attempt to trace Bert’s steps.
“We’re combing through those videos and making contact with individuals down there in hopes of getting some information that will be beneficial to our investigation,” said McNeely.
Bert is described as 6 feet, 220 pounds, with short black hair and tattoos on his left arm, wearing blue jeans, and a dark-colored hoodie. If you have any information you are asked to contact BRPD or Crimestoppers.
