TRURO, N.S. — The family of Peter Anthony (Tony) Walsh has issued a video appeal for information that could lead to finding him.

"We, as a family, are looking for a Christmas miracle. I would like someone with great compassion and courage to come forward with any information you have on the disappearance of my son, Tony Walsh," said Susan Robben, her voice breaking with tears, in the video.


"Tony is a son, brother, father, uncle and friend to many and we all miss him dearly. Tony's daughter is looking to have her dad come home for Christmas and cook her supper. That's all she's asking for."

Walsh was reported missing on Aug. 28, 2019. It was reported that he was last seen getting into a truck in the Truro area. His vehicle, a beige 1990 Chrysler Sebring, was later found in a parking lot in downtown Truro.

Tony is 5-foot-9 and 180 pounds. He has several tattoos, including a diamond under his right eye. He was last seen wearing brown work pants, a white T-shirt with black lettering and brown work boots.

"We know that someone out there knows something about Tony's disappearance and we want them to see this video," said Cpl. Jennifer Clarke of the Nova Scotia RCMP. 

The RCMP's Northeast Nova Major Crimes Unit and Tony Walsh's family are asking anyone with information to contact Colchester District RCMP at 902-893-6820. To remain anonymous, contact Nova Scotia Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477), www.crimestoppers.ns.ca, or use the P3 Tips App.
