Maine police look for missing Fla. firefighter

The Associated Press

BANGOR — Police are looking for a missing Florida firefighter who hasn't been seen in almost a week.

Authorities say 31-year-old Jerry Perdomo of Orange City, Fla., drove a rental car from Florida to Bangor, where it was found abandoned on Friday morning in a Walmart parking lot.

He was last seen wearing a black zip-up hooded sweat shirt, shorts and black sneakers. He is described as being Puerto Rican, 5-foot-11, about 200 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes.

A colleague tells the Bangor Daily News that Perdomo is a firefighter and emergency medical technician for the Seminole County Fire Department who did not show up for work as scheduled on Sunday. He was going to Maine to visit a friend.
