Middletown Police are searching for a Middletown teen with Asperger’s who left home early Thursday to go fishing in Westbrook.

Nathan Carman, 17, left Middletown at 7 a.m. on his black mountain bike to travel 30 miles and hasn’t been seen since.

State Police Troopers are searching local fishing holes now, according to police.

Asburgers Syndrome is a form of autism. Police say it may make Nathan seem rude but not violent. Those who may comes across Nathan are asked to calmly talk with him but don’t touch him because that will cause him to shut down. He will use passive resistance and will most likely go limp.
