BCSO continuing search for missing man

The Boundary County Sheriff's Office is continuing their search into missing resident Aram Wade Dowell. Dowell, 36, was last seen Dec. 16. Candy Colvin, Dowell's mother, is very concerned for her son. "Three weeks, no one's seen him," said Colvin, "He hasn't called. It's like he fell off the face off the earth." According to Colvin, Dowell vanished shortly after a domestic dispute with his father-in-law, who fired several shots in his direction.The Sheriff's Office confirmed that there was a physical altercation between Dowell and his father-in-law, who was armed with a pistol. No one was injured. According to Chief Deputy Rich Stephens, however, there is no indication of foul play in Dowell's disappearance. As of now, the Sheriff's Office is checking in with Dowell's contacts for information. Dowell sold his truck before disappearing, therefore making it more difficult for deputies. "We don't have a vehicle or anything to trace," said Stephens. Colvin finds his disappearance abnormal, though. "It's not like him not to call anyone," said Colvin. Colvin asks Boundary County residents to "please keep your eyes open and please call the Sheriff's Office if you have any information." 

Dowell stands at 5 feet 9 inches and weighs approximately 140 pounds. He has a scar on his left eye and tattoo on his upper right arm.The Sheriff's Office can be reached at 267-3151.
