SUNNYVALE, Calif. (KTVU) -- A Sunnyvale family and a national veterans group are trying to find an Iraq War veteran who hasn't been seen since the last week of November.

28-year-old Joseph Weber left his home on November 24th. His family reported him missing two days later.

The family told KTVU he had been under stress recently and they say he's never been the same since he returned from two tours of duty in Iraq. His sister said he had lived with the family while trying to cope with life after serving as a military police officer in Baghdad.

"He never was really able to forgive himself I think. He suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder and it affected almost every aspect of his life after that," Linnea Weber told KTVU.

The Highway Patrol found his car in the Golden Gate Bridge employee parking lot on November 27th.

Sunnyvale Department of Public Safety Captain Jeff Hunter told KTVU that raised concerns about what Weber might have been doing at the bridge.

"At that point we have CHP check surveillance cameras. There are images of him on the bridge with a crowd of people," Hunger said.

While there are no signs he jumped, but no signs he walked off the bridge either.
