The Upper Allen Township Police is asking for the public’s help in locating a missing elderly male, William A. Hersh. Hersh is an 82 year old white male. He is 5’10” and weighs approximately 250 pounds. He is mostly bald but does have some closely cropped white hair. He was last seen wearing a white long sleeve dress shirt and khaki type pants. He will most likely be wearing a gray and brown flat cap hat and a light brown coat with a dark brown collar. Hersh was last seen leaving his neighborhood, in Upper Allen Township, at 2115 hours on 2/3/2016. Hersh was driving a light blue 2003 Dodge Caravan Sport with Pennsylvania Registration ETM9579. The Caravan is missing the left front wheel cover and there is a hole in the front bumper, on the left side front of the vehicle. Leaving at this time of night is out of character for him.
