Police in Metro Vancouver are asking for help in finding an injured man who's been missing since the early hours of this morning.

Delta Police say they're asking residents in the Sunstone neighbourhood and the surrounding area to check their yards, sheds, and cars, and any other areas where someone may be able to take shelter.

They say the 21-year-old male, Tajas, is described as approximately 5’9” tall and 120 lbs. He has a "significant injury," and he left a home on foot at about 3:40 this morning wearing nothing but underwear.

Anyone who comes across him is asked to call 9-1-1 immediately.
