“By providing details about his appearance we are hoping to spark a conversation between friends or people that might know him as the 28 year old man he is today.
“Does someone you know have gaps in their life history?
“Do you know someone with a distinctive double ridge on their right ear?
“Is there someone in your life, your street, or your community that might be Andrew?”
