A Bridgeport man is searching for his missing father.

Nick Whyte told News 12 his dad, 63-year-old Errol Whyte, of Stamford, left the son's house in Bridgeport around 6:30 p.m. Thursday and has not been heard from since.

Whyte says he spotted his dad's car, a red 2002 Ford Explorer, on the side of I-95 between exits 17 and 18 in Westport, with his father's wallet and iPhone still in the empty vehicle.

Whyte says his father works in the construction industry and does not have any serious medical issues.

Whyte is asking anyone who can help find his dad to call Stamford police.
