Fortunately, there is a happy, if not bizarre ending: New York Man Found In Chicago With Apparent Amnesia
A man missing from his New York home for nearly seven months has turned up at a homeless shelter here, unharmed but apparently oblivious to how he ended up 1,000 miles from home or that he had a family searching for him.
Raymond Power Jr., 57, an attorney from New Rochelle, N.Y., and a former police officer, has been living in a shelter under the name "Jay Tower" and selling newspapers on the street, police said Tuesday.
Chicago detectives said Power apparently suffered from amnesia and did not know he had a wife and two kids in New York.
Tragically, he still doesn’t remember his family or his previous life. An unnamed relative rushed to Chicago once police found him, but Power did not recognize the person … and then he broke down crying again, realizing his memories were gone.
