The stepfather of a missing St. Catharines teen has posted an emotional video.
Eric Melcalfe James' stepson Quintin Bingley has been missing since May 25th.
The 18 year old disappeared that evening after getting dropped off at his home by friends.
Bingley had a 90% average while attending Governor Simcoe High and was set to attend York University this fall for computer sciences.
In the video Eric pleads with Bingley to come home saying he can't wait for the day he shows up on his porch.
The video has been shared 2.5 thousand times.
Bingley's mother, Sandra says nothing out of the ordinary was happening in Quintin's life when he went missing and there were no warning signs that he was in trouble or needed help.
She says his dad took him out for dinner the night he disappeared, his girlfriend came over for a visit, and then he went out with friends for a bit but was dropped off at 11:30pm.
According to Sandra, his three friends were the last people to see him, and Quintin told his friends he was going to bed.
His cellphone and wallet were found inside his home.
She realized the next day he wasn't in his room.
Sandra says the investigation continues, and the family has hired a private investigator.
Sandra says Quintin was an incredible person and any help finding him is appreciated.
A Gofund me page has been set up to help pay for the private investigator and billboards set up to help raise awareness.
So far $14,000 has been raised.
Sandra says she misses her son terribly.
