TIVERTON, R.I. (WPRI) - The family of 52-year-old Joseph DeSilva is worrying and waiting, as another day passes without any sign of him. He went missing over two days ago.
DeSilva, a food distributor, was last seen Tuesday morning at Peter's Package Store in Fall River. He was then scheduled to make a stop in New Bedford, but never arrived.
His wife and daughter say they got concerned when he did not come home Tuesday night.
"I find it unusual because he didn't call me," says his wife, Kelly DeSilva. "He calls me every day at 4:30."
"We always have family time at 7:00 Tuesday nights," says his daughter Kristen. "He wouldn't miss that without calling."
DeSilva's family and friends have plastered hundreds of flyers around the area. They have also checked his bank and credit card accounts. His family tells Eyewitness News they are convinced he needs help.
"He carries alot of money, because of his job," says Kell DeSilva. "We've worried that someone could have been watching him, and looking for a chance to rob him."
"My gut tells me he is out there somewhere hurt," says Kristen DeSilva. "It's a though I can't even think about.
Joseph DeSilva was last seen driving a late-model black Ford Taurus wth Massachusetts license plate 81DE33. Anyone with information is asked to call Tiverton police.
