Not sure if any of you might have heard this story already...Andrew Koenig is probably best known to TV watchers years ago as Mike Seaver's best friend Boner on Growing Pains. But to me, he's always been best known as Walter Koenig's son.
Andrew, who has been on anti-depressants but stopped taking them, has apparently been struggling with his depression recently. To the point that he emptied out his apartment in LA and told people he was going to Vancouver, Canada to start a new life. He hasn't been seen or heard from since Valentine's Day, and his cell phone is turned off. There have been some reported sightings, but nothing fruitful so far.
Here is one of the original stories about Andrew's disappearance, along with a recent photo of him:

And here is footage of Walter and his wife Judy at a press conference in Vancouver today, in which Walter became very emotional when discussing Andrew:

I hope Andrew is found safe and sound soon.
