PHOENIX — Editor's note: the above video is from an Aug. 26 newscast.

A volunteer group is coordinating with the family of a missing Marine to conduct a massive search next Saturday.

Jesse Conger, who served tours in Afghanistan and Iraq, was last seen at the apartment where he lives with his girlfriend in Scottsdale on Aug. 14. He left behind his keys, phone, wallet and service dog.

Conger’s family said he battles post-traumatic stress disorder.

On Oct. 5, Code of Vets and Teamsters Local 104 will help Conger’s family search rest stops, gas stations and roads for leads or the car Jesse was in, a 2015 Toyota Camry with Nevada plates.
