Missing Purdue Student
Wade S. Steffey, 19, a freshman, was last seen at a party at the Phi Kappa Theta fraternity house at 900 David Ross Road. He is white and has short brown hair and brown eyes.
He is 5 feet 10 inches tall and weighs about 150 pounds.
At 1:11 a.m. Saturday, someone accessed Steffey's bank account at an automated teller machine at 1122 W. Stadium Ave. in the lobby of the Ford Dining Court.
The police learned of Steffey's disappearance on Tuesday evening when the student's father called to report that his son had not been seen by his friends or in his room in the West Cary Quadrangle Residence Hall since early Saturday. Steffey's father told the police that he had not heard from his son all weekend.
"Wade's friends and relatives have told us that it is not like him to disappear without alerting anyone or to miss class," said Purdue police Capt. John Cox. "We are asking anyone who has information about Wade or where he might be to contact us as soon as possible."
Anyone with information related to the case or knows of any suspicious activity in the area is asked to call the Purdue Police Department at (765) 494-8221 or the anonymous tip line at (765) 496-3784.
