Search Continues For Missing Bedminster Man

Roger Temple, 44, still listed as missing two weeks after he was last seen.

Bedminster Township Police Chief Pat Ussery said Tuesday that Roger Temple, 44, of Wendover Court in Bedminster Township, is still missing.

Authorities had issued an alert last week asking for the public's assistance in finding the missing man, possibly considered endangered.

Temple was last seen at his residence June 19 and was last heard from via text message on June 23, police said. Temple may be wearing a backpack, and he is known to frequent the Somerville area, according to a release issued by the Somerset County prosecutor's office.

Temple was described by police as a 5 foot, 8 inch white male, weighing 175 pounds. He has hazel eyes, partially gray hair and a small mole on the left side of his nose, according to a description from the Somerset County Prosecutor's Office.
