Why is his family worried?

Forsyth’s car, a black Infiniti, was found at Cassville Aquatic Park. His wallet, passport and work briefcase were still inside, along with his cell phones.

What is happening with search efforts?

Police in Cassville have been actively searching for Forsythe, using K9 units and drones in the area where his car was found. So far, they have not found any more clues to where he might be.

How can people help?

Forsyth is 5’11”, weighs 180 pounds and has brown hair and blue eyes.
