UPDATE: Missing person found

October 11, 2011

Missing person Brett Kingston from Marshfield was found unharmed.

Missing person last seen in Marshfield

October 11, 2011

Brett Kingston (30 years old) was last seen October 10, 2011 at 6:30 pm at home by his job coach from PDC. The job coach indicated that everything with Brett was fine at that time.

Brett is autistic but highly functional. He did not show up work this morning at 9:15 am which is highly unusual for him. It is believed that he has gone into what his mother described as “Shutdown Mode”. When this happens he shuts out the outside world and withdraws into his own world and will not respond to strangers.

He is not on any medication and has not hurt anyone in the past. However if found, it is recommended not to approach him as he only responds to a few trusted people. If approached by anyone other than these people or by more than one person, he most likely will become very agitated and animated. He has run from police in the past and has pounded on/threw things when he gets agitated. As with anyone who is in fear for their wellbeing or safety and is cornered, there always exists the chance of violence so use caution.

If you do find Brett, please call the Marshfield Police Dept. (715) 387-4394, immediately and monitor subject. He does drive a vehicle with LP# 296PCH which is on a 1998 Toyota Corolla 4dr, gold in color. It is very neat and clean with no distinguishing markings. He has been known to park his vehicle and walk. In the past he has gone some place quiet and isolated to be alone. He does not like crowds or being around other people.
