Authorities are searching for a 28-year-old Bradenton man who has been missing since last Wednesday night.
According to the Manatee Sheriff's Office, Christopher Babauta was last seen at his parents' home on the 6400 block of 47th Avenue East in Bradenton. He left at 10 p.m. driving a 1996 silver Ford Thunderbird with Florida tag No. B368LC.
Investigators say Babauta texted his roommate at 1:05 a.m. Thursday saying he would be home that morning, but that's the last communication anyone has had with him.
Anyone with information is asked to contact the Manatee County Sheriff's Office.
