WATERLOO, NY (607NewsNow) – The search for a missing man in Waterloo is being called off.

The missing person report issued for Mark Taggarty earlier this week has been cancelled.

The 66-year-old had not been seen since leaving his job on foot around 9 a.m. December 8, under what authorities referred to as suspicious conditions.

The Seneca County Sheriff’s Office says no further information will be released out of respect for Taggarty’s family and friends.
