Worcester Man Missing For 2 Weeks, Family Continues To Search
A desperate sister has taken to social media to ask for help in finding her brother.
WORCESTER, MA—Elizabeth Metcalf Mcconnell said her brother Gary would visit her house every day. When he didn't show up the first week, she assumed he had been working double shifts. By the second week, she told her husband they needed to check in on him.
When she went to Gary Metcalf's home, she was told no one had seen him in two weeks. Gary's belongs are all still there. Gary lives on Elm Street, works in Main South, and frequents the Burncoat area.
Checking in at his place of work, Archer Security at the Royal on Grand Street, his boss said he hadn't seen him in two weeks and hadn't picked up his last check and managers were planning to call police for a "wellness check" on him.

"He was a good employee," Elizabeth told Patch. "His boss aid he would take him back, even."
"The last thing he had said to me was that he was concerned about losing his job," said Elizabeth, because there was someone there he had complained about not doing their job, and they were related to one of the bosses. This is what he also told the manager where he lived. She said he was afraid he would end up homeless."

"He was very much a loner and a straight arrow," said Elizabeth. "No drugs, alcohol. Anyone who knew him said he was a 'nice guy.'"
