BEMIDJI, Minn. (WCCO) — The Bemidji Police Department is asking for the public’s help in locating a 31-year-old Bemidji man who went missing early Saturday morning.

Matthew Pulis was last seen at a bar in downtown Bemidji bar, where he sent a short text to his friend. His electronic media devices have not been accessed or used since then.

It is unknown if Pulis walked or was given a ride when he left downtown. The public is asked to check their backyards and any out buildings they may have. If Pulis attempted to walk home from the downtown area, he may have sought shelter along the way due to recent cooler temperatures.

Pulis is 5 foot 7 and 165 pounds with brown hair and blue eyes. He was wearing a dark blue zip up hooded sweatshirt. His hair is several inches longer than shown in the picture.

Police say Pulis does not own a vehicle or drive. He was scheduled to work Monday, but has not been seen or heard from his employer or family.

Anyone who might know Pulis’ whereabouts is asked to call 1-218-333-9111.
