Buddy System Violation

It sounds like this guy went hiking by himself. I am familiar with that area, and it is totally possible to get hurt, although you would have to work at it to get lost. Hopefully they will find him OK.

AGOURA HILLS, Calif. -- Hundreds of Boy Scouts and high school students will join forces early Saturday in the local mountains to search for a scoutmaster who's been missing for five days.

 

It's believed that 53-year-old Tim Perryman went for a hike in the mountains Sunday near his home in Agoura Hills. He never returned.

 

Members of his scout troop will lead the search Saturday. Friday night they gathered together for some last-minute instructions.

 

Anyone wishing to take part in the search is more than welcome. The command post will be at Daylight Drive and Garden Oaks Court in Agoura Hills.

From that point, if he went downstream he'd hit the ocean and Pacific Coast Highway in a lot less that 5 days.

Please keep us updated on this.

I do hope that everything turns out for the best.

Search Resumes For Missing Man

Man May Be Suffering From Depression

AGOURA HILLS, Calif. -- The whereabouts of an Agoura Hills man remained a mystery Sunday -- a week after he disappeared from his home.

 

A search Saturday, involving sheriff's deputies, family members, Boy Scouts and other volunteers, failed to turn up any sign of Timothy Verne Perryman.

 

Family members and volunteers planned to resume searching Sunday, a local television station reported. Sheriff's personnel were not slated to take part Sunday, said Sgt. Peter Charbonneau of the Malibu/Lost Hills Station.

 

Perryman, 53, was last seen at about 2 p.m. on March 28, shortly before he drove his vehicle from his home in the 29100 block of Garden Oaks Court, Deputy Luis Castro said earlier.

 

Sometime that night, Perryman -- who suffers from medical problems and was said to be depressed -- parked the vehicle in his driveway and left home on foot, authorities said.

 

Saturday's search effort, which began about 9 a.m., involved a sheriff's search and rescue team and a helicopter crew, said sheriff's Sgt. Cally Barrier.

 

Previous searches involving "scent dogs" had been unsuccessful.

 

Perryman reportedly is an avid hiker and a Boy Scout leader. The search focused on areas he was known to frequent, said Barrier.

 

She said Perryman "may be suffering from depression." Barrier also said that the missing man's "family was concerned because he requires medication for urinary-tract difficulties and they believe he does not have that medication with him."

 

Perryman is white, 5 feet 9 inches tall, and weighs 185 pounds. He has brown hair and hazel eyes. Peggyman was last seen wearing a blue-and-white dress shirt and blue jeans, deputies said earlier.

 

Anyone with information about his whereabouts was asked to call Detective Diane Harris at (323) 890-5500.
