The Las Cruces Police Department continues to ask the public for help in the location of a missing Las Cruces man.

77-year-old Donald Fonte was last seen at his home, on the 2900 block of Majestic Terrace.

Fonte has been missing since around 1:30 p.m. on Saturday, June 3. Authorities say Fonte indicated to his wife that he was going to the dog park at 300 N. Hermosa St. In Las Cruces but it is currently unknown whether Fonte made it to the park.

Fonte is 6-feet-2-inches tall and weighs approximately 185 pounds. He has gray hair and green eyes.

Police say he was last seen wearing a hat with UCLA lettering, an olive long-sleeve shirt and green pants. Fonte also commonly wears glasses.

Fonte might be driving his red 2007 Toyota 4-Runner with a Louisiana license plate of ZKT753, officials say. It has a New Orleans fluer-de-lis symbol on the back window.

It is likely he is traveling with his orange and white dog, a Cajun cur, that weighs 45 pounds.
