Police say they are conducting an extensive search for a 21-year-old U.S. Navy member who disappeared after he left a bar in downtown Waukegan over the weekend.
The Waukegan Police Department received a report around 2 p.m. Tuesday for a missing person, according to Waukegan Deputy Police Chief Brian Mullen.
Mullen said the Waukegan Police Department Criminal Investigations Division began to investigate in an attempt to locate Seamus Gray, 21, who has not been seen since the early morning hours on Saturday.
Detectives learned Gray is a member of the United States Navy assigned to Naval Station Great Lakes in Lake County.
Gray did not report back to the base at his assigned time, Mullen said.

He was seen on video by himself at the intersection of Sheridan Road and Washington Street in Waukegan around 1:40 a.m. Saturday.
Gray has not been seen or spoken to since leaving the bar, Mullen said.
The Waukegan Police Department and the Waukegan Fire Department conducted an extensive search of the area Gray was last seen and the surrounding area, including the lakefront.
