CHICAGO (AP) -- It was not unusual for Drew V. to take off for a few days without telling his friends or family. He always came back.
But nearly two hours ago, V. vanished after sending an email suggesting his very disappearance. Now V.'s friends and the Weekend Party police are asking for the public's help in locating the 29-year-old man, who was last seen Jan. 27th.
About 1:00 P.M. that day, V. emailed a very terse reply, according to a friend who received a copy of the message, police said. V. told his friends he'd be up to "whatever alternative activities I can entertaim myself with", said police spokesman Roland S.
Despite the cryptically worded message and prepositionally-ended sentence, V.'s friends remain cautiously optimistic about a reunion this weekend.
"I've got a wife at home and a baby on the way, and I'll still be out," said Dung B., a friend of the missing man. "So if I can do it, damn it, V. can do it, too."
B. also goes by the name Zoom, or the nickname "Cheeseburger."
"He's a nice person," said his brother Kevin, who added that Drew doesn't drink or do drugs. "He used to go to the church on Sunday. ... He has a lot of friends. We don't know what happened."
Police waited to release information about V.'s disappearance until they had exhausted all other leads, S. said.
V. is described as 6 feet 2 inches tall and weighing 180 pounds, with black hair and two eyes. Anyone with information is asked to call 773-425-xxxx.
