10 Months After Man Disappears, Concord And Bow Police, Others Renew The Search: Follow-Up

CONCORD, NH — Concord police are expanding their search for a man from Bow missing since July 2025 and asking for the public’s help.

The department, as well as its law enforcement partners, spent several hours conducting a grid search of the southeastern part of the city on Thursday in search of Ryan O’Donnell, 44, of Bow. O’Donnell, who was “known to frequent the homeless community at different time periods,” according to Lt. Thomas Yerkes, of the department’s bureau of investigations, was last seen by a family member when he was dropped off around Hall and Water streets in Concord on July 27, 2025. Police, state troopers, and sheriff’s deputies performed “multiple searches” of known homeless encampments throughout the city, focusing on the railroad tracks when he would often “utilize as a walking route,” Yerkes said.
