Authorities ask community's help in finding missing man

Authorities are looking for a Gainesville man who has been missing for a week.

The family of engineer John Waldo, 42, contacted the Gainesville Police Department this week after not having contact with him in days, said GPD spokesman Keith Kameg.

There has been no sign of activity from Waldo since Feb. 11 when detectives discovered his credit card was used at Calico Jacks Oyster Bar, 3502 SW 2nd Ave, Kameg said.

According to his family, he is a responsible man and it is out of character for him to have missed work and family functions, Kameg said.

Officers continue to search for Waldo's 2001 silver BMW 330i, with a temporary Florida license plate number of ACM9754.

Kameg said he hopes the community can help find Waldo.

Police urge anyone with information on Waldo's whereabouts to call detective Bennie Smith at 352-334-2488.
