Mills, who turned 72 on Friday, suffers from a delayed mental capacity as well, the Clermont County Communication Center said.

"He was out when it was raining so he's going to be wet," said Jeff Shari, chief of Cincinnati Search and Recovery. "Worried that he might have hypothermia by now."

Shari urged people living near where Mills disappeared to check their properties.

"He's going to be under or inside anything that you might have in your backyard," he said.

Anyone with information regarding Mills whereabouts are asked to call the Pierce Township Police Department at 513-752-4100. You can also call the Clermont County Communications Center at 513-732-2231.
