Family Searches N.Y.C. For Missing UPenn Track Star Timothy Hamlett

Has anyone seen 21-year-old UPenn track star Timothy Hamlett of Teaneck, New Jersey?

He has been missing since December 26th and his wallet and phone were found in New York.

Of his disappearance, Hamlett’s father says, “He has never done anything like this before. This does not fit his personality. It’s a complete departure from how he was a year ago,” said Hamlett.

The Father did notice a change in Timothy’s behavior, though, when he began taking nutrition supplements.

NewsOne reports:

“According to Hamlett, his son began acting out of character while at school at UPenn, where he ran track. Hamlett said his son took legal nutritional supplements, which he believes might have affected his behavior.

“’I noticed a change in his personality when he started taking sports supplements for running. He would look at NCAA guidelines, and if it was not banned he would make up supplements,’ said Hamlett.

“Timothy was home from school with his family undergoing diagnostic exams, such as an MRI and tests from a neurologist on his pituitary gland, while they tried to figure out why his behavior had changed.”
