The photo of Tim sitting is exactly what he was wearing when they left (minus the work gloves). He has a fleece grey/navy plaid button down under his black zip up hoodie and black/dark grey pants. Black sneakers with white soles. Some things that may help you recognize him:
Tim often has a hunched/forward-leaning posture, with rounded shoulders and his elbows bent. He tends to keep his arms and hands close to the front of his body rather than swinging them freely at his sides. He may clench his hands/knuckles or repeatedly scratch himself while walking. He tends to walk at a swift pace. Please keep an eye out for someone matching his clothing, build, posture, and way of walking, not just his face.
If you believe you see Tim, please call the Westfield police. If you can safely do so from a distance, take a photo or video and send it to police along with the exact location, time, and direction he was traveling.
