WAKEFIELD - A State Police helicopter, local police and volunteers are continuing their search today for a Wakefield man missing more than a week.

Jacob Toussaint was last seen in the area of Old Stage Road in Wakefield on Nov. 7.

Family and friends have been searching every day, said his father, Eric Toussaint, who searched the area of Marsh Road on Sunday.

Eric Toussaint said they spent part of the weekend searching the homeless camps in Rochester as his son occasionally will sleep outside.

"But he's never ever been off social media or off his phone more than a couple of days, never like this," said Eric Toussaint who was back searching in Wakefield again today.

He also announced a $1,000 reward if it leads to finding his son.

Toussaint is from Wakefield and attended the Bud Carlson Academy, according to his Facebook page.

He is described as 5'9'' and 145 pounds and was last seen wearing a black hoody and pants.

Anyone with information is urged to call Wakefield Police at 603.539.2284.
