Family and friends of Zachary Marr, the missing 22-year-old who was last seen outside a Boston tavern early Saturday morning, continued to search the city and ask the public for information on his whereabouts on Monday.

“We miss him, and there’s a lot of people looking for him,’’ his father, Matthew Marr, told NECN. “We’re trying to take all angles, any angle possible, whether it be the good and the bad.’’

Boston Police put out a missing person alert on Sunday for Marr, who hails from the central Massachusetts town of Harvard.

Marr was in Boston to celebrate his 22nd birthday, and he and his cousins spent late Friday night into Saturday morning at the Bell In Hand Tavern near Faneuil Hall, The Boston Globe reports.

His cousin, Amanda Marr, said Zachary had stepped outside of the tavern for a smoke without his coat at about 1:30 a.m, the Globe reports. He sent her a Snapchat a few minutes later, saying that he was not allowed back in. When the group went outside to find him, he wasn’t there, Amanda Marr told the Globe.

Marr hasn’t been heard from since.

Bell In Hand said that their surveillance video shows Marr leaving the tavern at 1:20 a.m., and that he did not try to re-enter, according to a post on the tavern’s Facebook page.

Other video showed him in front of the garage heading towards the Surface Artery, the tavern said. They have turned over their video to the family and police.

“We hope that he is found soon and we are cooperating fully with police and the family to help in any way we can,’’ Bell In Hand said.

Family posted fliers and signs of his face and basic information around Boston on Monday, hoping to get a tip on his whereabouts.

“So many have been gracious and sharing his story, and we really appreciate it,’’ Jessica Fortier-Gross, a cousin, told WCVB. “We miss him. We just want him home.’’

Marr is described as a 5-foot-8 white male weighing about 175 pounds, with brown hair, blue eyes, and a beard police said. He was last seen wearing dark jeans, a blue sweatshirt, and black sneakers.

Anyone with information about Marr should be directed to Boston Police at 617-343-4571.
