UPDATE: Police say he has been found safe

Surrey RCMP is asking for the public’s help in finding a missing 24-year-old, who is autistic with a developmental disability.

Josiah Lam was last seen around 4:30 p.m. on Friday (Dec. 17) at a medical clinic at 13719 72 Ave., according to a release from Surrey RCMP. Police say he has not been seen or heard from since.

Lam is Chinese, five-foot-eight and 187 lbs.

He has short black hair and was last seen wearing a dark-grey coloured puffy jacket, baggy jeans and running shoes. Lam was wearing a white lanyard around his neck with an ID card, and a grey backpack. He carries contact information in his backpack.

Police have not provided a photo.

Anyone with information Lam is asked to contact the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502, or Crime Stoppers, if they wish to remain anonymous, at 1-800-222-8477 or solvecrime.ca, quoting file number 2021-121989.
