https://www.fox8tv.com/new-york-political-candidate-vanishes-clothes-found-on-beach/Detectives in Nassau County, New York, are searching for a missing Democratic political candidate and field organizer who has been missing since last Thursday and was last seen on Long Island.
"According to detectives, Petros Krommidas, 29, was last seen in Baldwin," the Nassau County Police Department said in a press release. "He was last seen wearing a camouflage print sweatshirt and gray sweatpants. He is believed to be in the Long Beach area."
In a social media post, people identified as Krommidas' family members by NBC 4 asked for the public's help in finding Krommidas and said that his personal items were recovered from the beach on Thursday.
"On Wednesday, April 23, Petey parked his car by the Allegria Hotel in Long Beach, New York. He locked his car, took a towel, and around 10:30 PM walked onto the beach to exercise, just as he had done many times before," the post says. "On Thursday, April 24, the police found his towel, clothes, and phone left on the beach. Since then, search efforts have been ongoing, but we need the publics help."
The post describes Krommidas as "no stranger to cold water training" and says he planned to compete in an upcoming triathlon.

Those waters can get rough and I imagine you can get disoriented in cold water at night.

alone at the beach?
I don't think it's hard to figure out what happened. They'll find him washed up somewhere.
