WINNIPEG - Hundreds of community volunteers, friends and family have extended the search for a missing Winnipeg hunter across southeast Manitoba, all the way to Kenora, Ont.
Norman Brad Lambert, who goes by Brad, has been missing since a hunting trip Nov. 15.
The 46-year-old was last seen in Marchand, Man., likely wearing hunting gear.
So far up to 100 volunteers are involved in the search.
“People are rallying groups together,” his sister Sue Lambert said on Friday. “There’s a lot of people tracking it and have been out, especially in the beginning in the hunting area, going out on ATVs and doing all the trails.”
She said that after a week without word from Lambert - who failed to show up at work at a Manitoba government office last week - they’ve expanded the search.
“Now, basically, we are just trying to cover all of southeastern Manitoba with missing posters - pictures of him and his truck. Just to appeal to the public at large: Not just the hunting community,” Lambert said.
“We’ve been searching that area for the week and we’ve found nothing. So we’d just like to expand the search. He could be anywhere.”
Lambert is 6-feet tall and 240 lbs. He has brown hair, grey on the sides. He was driving a black Ford F-150.
His sister says her brother has been hunting in the area before.
“He loves hunting ... and he has a lot of very concerned friends and family,” she said.
RCMP have also been conducting aerial searches.
