Detective Inspector Mark Clarke – Island-wide search efforts resumed at 8am Saturday, May 10th for missing 67 year old Canadian visitor Mr. William ‘Bill’ Grange and continued through Sunday, May 11th.

Members of the Grange family were an integral part of the ongoing search efforts for their loved one, who suffers from short term memory loss and was last seen around 10pm Friday, May 2nd at his vacation accommodation, Cambridge Beaches Resort in Sandys parish.

He is further described as a Caucasian male, 5'9" tall with white hair and by now likely some beard growth, wearing beige pants, a blue shirt, brown jacket and brown shoes.

Over the weekend extensive land and marine searches were conducted by volunteers including members of the public, Bermuda Regiment plus Junior Leaders, as well as police officers in the western, central and eastern parishes.

Western parishes: various land areas including Railway Trails, directed searches of Fort Scaur, Parapet property, Boaz Island.

Marines searches by Marine Police, Regimental Boat Troop and volunteer divers in the western area.

Eastern parishes: various land areas including shorelines in the Ferry Reach and eastern area.

Central parishes: various land areas and shorelines in the central area.

In addition, two area ponds were searched in Sandys parish and volunteers from the boating community conducted a shoreline search of the Dockyard area, including an exploration of the reef line up to one mile offshore, without success.

During the land searches area residents throughout the island were also spoken to, with many of them indicating they were aware that ‘Bill’ Grange was missing and had checked their own properties for the 67 year old Canadian visitor, to no avail.

On behalf of the Bermuda Police Service I wish to thank everyone who took time out of their weekend to search for ‘Bill’ Grange and continue to appeal for anyone who may have seen or who may have any information on the whereabouts of the missing 67 year old Canadian visitor to contact the main police telephone number 295-0011 immediately, reporting all relevant information.
