The family of Kamal Ayoub, an octogenarian missing since October 22 in Longueuil, implores the authorities to intensify their search and asks for help from citizens to find their loved one.
“We are in the total unknown. We worry about knowing what happened, if he is suffering or if he has suffered, saddens the daughter of the 86-year-old man, Élise Ayoub. Where is he? We have no idea at the moment.”
Mme Ayoub knows that an investigation was opened at the Sûreté du Québec to try to find him since his father could have taken the direction of a highway. As for the Longueuil police, searches were carried out in the area, “by drone, on foot and by car,” said the woman in an interview.

“We also did research in the area, but it is certain that as many people as possible are aware that this car is wanted, if it is parked somewhere, if people have noticed for a while that “a fairly old black car is somewhere… It would be really good if as many people as possible could keep an eye on this event so that we can find it,” hopes the victim’s daughter.
The last time Mr. Ayoub was reportedly seen was in a black 2005 Honda Accord.

“A car doesn’t disappear. He’s somewhere, that’s for sure. If he had gone off the road on Tuesday October 22 when he left the Laberge in broad daylight, it would have been seen, so it’s a really special story,” saddens Mme Ayoub.
Otherwise, all the police have as information for the moment, according to what was said to the family, is that the man had an accident at the Longueuil Public Market on Chemin de la Savane, in the Saint-Hubert borough, on October 21.

Mr. Ayoub allegedly came close to driving his vehicle onto a terrace. Met by the authorities following this accident, the police noted that the man seemed very confused, even mentioning that he did not remember being involved in an event of this kind.
The next day, after spending the night at his home, the octogenarian allegedly tried to report to the towing company with whom he had done business the day before, since he had forgotten some personal effects in his damaged vehicle.
However, he allegedly showed up at the wrong business. He would have gone to the Laberge Group, in Longueuil, near the industrial district, aboard the Honda. He then allegedly asked someone for directions to Groupe Laberge near Highway 30, in Saint-Bruno-de-Montarville, around noon.
That would be the last time we saw him.

On the surveillance cameras of the Laberge Group in Longueuil, the police noted that Mr. Ayoub looked very confused; retracing his steps and not sure which direction to take.
“The police would have seen the cameras in this neighborhood to see him making two trips back and forth on Jean-Neveu Boulevard, in Longueuil. Subsequently, he did not go to Saint-Bruno, so we do not know which direction he took, if he took the highway towards Montreal, towards Quebec, towards Sorel, we have no information. idea right now.”

“Did he stop because he felt unwell? Did he feel tired? Is he in a parking lot? We have absolutely no idea at the moment,” worries M.me Ayoub.
She also informs that no diagnosis has been made to date regarding her father’s state of health. However, she noticed that he was “beginning to have moments of fatigue and confusion.”
She implores citizens to keep an eye out and contact authorities if they see a car that meets the description.
