Actor Andrew Koenig, who played "Boner" on the television show Growing Pains, has been reported missing in Vancouver, British Columbia.

According to USA Today:

Koenig, 41, known for his role on the television series Growing Pains, was scheduled to return to his home in Venice, Calif., Feb. 16. But police Constable Tim Fanning said Koenig never boarded the airplane at Vancouver International Airport.

Investigators believe Koenig still is in the Vancouver area where he once lived and "doesn't want to be found," Fanning says.

Fanning said friends and relatives said Koenig was feeling "despondent" before he went missing while visiting friends. Fanning said the actor's trip to Vancouver was not related to the Olympics.

Koenig is the son of actor Walter Koenig, who played Chekov in the Star Trek television series.
