STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- The investigation continues on Wednesday into the disappearance of Christopher Montgomery from U.S. Coast Guard Sector New York on Staten Island.

The city Police Department and the Coast Guard have asked for the public's help in locating the radio operator from Manorville, L.I., who has served for seven years.

"We have no reason to suspect foul play," said Charles Rowe, a public affairs officer for the Coast Guard. "It is an active, on-going investigation."

Montgomery, who is single, was reported missing after he failed to show up for an appointment last Thursday morning at the Guard's New York Health Clinic at 215 Drum Ave. in Fort Wadsworth located within the 120 Precinct. Fort Wadsworth is the regular duty station for the operations specialist.

Montgomery is described by police as 26 years old with blue eyes and black hair, standing 5-feet-9 inches tall and weighing about 200 pounds. He was last seen wearing shorts, flip flops, and a hoodie.
