Metallic was reported missing on Nov. 25, 2012, following a party at a residence in Sackville. A few days after his disappearance, footwear belonging to him was located off the Haute-Aboujagane Road.

Metallic is described as aboriginal, measuring six feet tall, and weighing about 180 pounds at the time of his disappearance. He has short, dark, black hair and was last seen wearing a shiny bright blue sweater and jeans.

"We continue to receive information about the disappearance of Chris Metallic," says Sgt. Paul Gagné with the Sackville RCMP. "By conducting these new searches we will be following up on some of that information in order to see if it provides any more information about what happened to Chris."

Police are asking the public if they see police in a particular area to stay away from the search area so as not to disturb any possible evidence or disrupt the plans set out for the search.

Since 2012, RCMP have used police dogs and a police helicopter to search in and around the town of Sackville, as well as the Haute-Aboujagane Road area. Ground search and rescue teams have also assisted, and the RCMP's underwater dive team has searched the Tantramar River.

Anyone who may have information about Chris Metallic or his disappearance is asked to contact the Sackville RCMP at 506-364-5023. Information can also be provided anonymously through Crime Stoppers by Secure Web Tips at www.crimenb.ca, by calling 1-800-222-TIPS (8477), or by texting TIP212 + your message to 'CRIMES' (274637).
