STERLING HEIGHTS (WWJ) - Family and police are hoping a tip from the public can lead to a safe return home for a missing Sterling Heights man who'd disappeared once before.

Police say 27-year-old Lawrence "Larry" Kunz — missing since Sunday. Aug. 8 — has mental problems and may be off his medication,

He left his house on a blue mountain bike; and police believe he may be headed to a wooded area in northern Sterling Heights.

Kunz's family is "very concerned" because of a similar disappearance in April in which Larry was found in the woods behind Lifetime Fitness in Shelby Township (Hayes and M-59).

In that instance, police said, Kunz was off his medication and was in serious jeopardy of injury or death if he would have not been found by Sterling Heights detectives.

Anyone who might have seen Lawrence or his blue mountain bike or who knows where he is asked to call the Sterling Heights Police Department at 586-446-2825.
