SUMMARY OF INCIDENT:
The investigation into the disappearance of Robert Servian (5/9/49) remains unsolved, with the investigation continuing. Due to this the Vermont State Police are requesting a second release of the information and picture of Servian, by local media.
This press release is in reference to a missing person, Robert Servian (5/9/49), who was reported missing on 4/2/10 from Sarasota, FL. Both he and his vehicle were entered into the National Crime Information Center (NCIC), by the Sarasota Police Department on 4/2/10. The last communication received from Robert was in the form of an e-mail received by Robert's wife on 3/30/10. He is described as 6'00" tall, 210 lbs, White Hair, Blue Eyes. There is no information as to clothing at the time of this release. The wife advised that Robert had lost 35 pounds over the last year, but did not describe him as being in good physical condition.
She advised that he use to be a big hiker, who had done a lot of hiking along the Appalachian Trial. She advised that he had not done this in a long time.
She further stated that he was born in New York, but grew up in Connecticut.
The wife feels that Robert is probably despondent and possibly suicidal. She advised she is unaware of anyone who he might be meeting or who would have picked him up at the Holiday Inn.
Upon responding to the Holiday Inn, I found Robert's 2010 white Honda 2 door, with Florida registration #355LIL, parked in the northeast lot. Inspection of the vehicle did not show any signs of foul play. The vehicle was secured and in good condition.
Holiday Inn personnel advised that employees at the Inn have commented about the length the vehicle had been in the parking lot and felt it was suspicious. Upon reporting to the Vermont State Police, the vehicle was run in the NCIC database, which alerted in reference to the missing person report. They stated that the vehicle was first noticed it in the lot approximately 3 to 4 weeks prior to this date.
Anyone with any information is requested to contact Det. Sgt. Albert Abdelnour at the Vermont State Police Barracks in Rutland, 802-773-9101.
