Ronald French, 71, disappeared from S. 34th Street in Brady Township on June 4th.

His 2016 Silverado pickup truck has since been found, but there's no sign of French.

Ronald French is approximately 6 feet tall and weighs 200 pounds.
He has gray hair and blue eyes.

Family members say they're worried because he suffers from epilepsy and has a heart condition, and he may not have his necessary medication.

Man in custody: http://wwmt.com/news/local/family-of-ronald-french-searching-for-justice


The French family says they are desperate for answers but relieved detectives have a man in custody in connection to Ron’s death.

"From what I understand he is a very dangerous character. He has been in trouble a lot," he said.

Despite the bitter end to a family’s search they hope French gets justice and their family gets peace.

Connection between car thief and missing man: http://wwmt.com/news/local/connection-between-suspected-car-thief-missing-man

A probable cause hearing Wednesday revealed a possible connection between Joshua Wessel and Ronald French.

Wessel was charged with stealing a vehicle. In the probably cause hearing, a deputy testified that the stolen vehicle belonged to Ronald French. Investigators say Wessel admitted to taking the truck from French.

Wessel's mother says police identified her son as a suspect in French's death. Right now police and prosecutors will not confirm any connection between the two men. The Kalamazoo County Sheriff's Office says it will not give any updates on the investigation into French's death until it is complete.

I am thankful Ronald French has been located. The infomation released that he had his vehicle stolen and "appears" to have met with foul play by the thief and then discarded is sad.
