He's described as five feetfour inches tall,weighing 110 pounds, with short black hair and brown eyes. He was last seen wearing black track pants with a white stripe, a blue jacket and a black Metal Mulisha sweater.

Police are also hoping for any witnesses to come forward who might haveinformation about two vehicles that were seen in the area of Sylvia's Caf in the 5600 block of Nazko Highway just after 9 p.m. on the day Korkowski disappeared.

One is a green 2003 Ford Explorer with B.C. licence plate KF087R, with a dent in the passenger door, a roof rack, black tinted windows, grey five-prong rims and chrome body trim.

The other is a grey 2007 Toyota Matrix with black paint and peeling damage on the roof and sticker residue on the passenger side door.
