Police are looking for a man who was last seen leaving his Ridgewood home on Friday morning.

Rafael Vega, 60, was last seen leaving his Greene Avenue home at 10:30 a.m. on Sept. 13. He is described as a Hispanic man with brown eyes, black hair, a light complexion, standing 6 feet, 2 inches tall and weighing 210 pounds. He was last seen wearing a grey T-shirt, blue jeans and black boots.

Sources familiar with the investigation say that Vega has a history of disappearing, however since he would normally return after a short amount of time it was never reported to police.
