Reward now up to $5,000 in search for man who went missing from Bangor psychiatric center


The family of a missing man with schizophrenia has increased the reward it is offering for information leading to the return of their loved one.

The family of 38-year-old Graham Lacher is now offering a $5,000 reward.

He was last seen in June 2022, when he walked away from the Dorothea Dix Psychiatric Center in Bangor.

Lacher also has autism.

His family initially offered $500, but they have increased the reward several times.

This latest increase comes after a family friend said they wanted to help and donated $1,500 to the cause.

According to the Bangor Daily News, Lacher went missing in Somerset County in late 2021 but was found about three days later in Waterville.
