Police continue to search for a missing Waterbury man who disappeared in a manner similar to another Connecticut man.

Thomas Paternostro, 24, was last seen a week ago from Wednesday. His car was found parked with his keys and wallet inside.

Billy Smolinsk, 35, disappeared three and a half years ago. However, his keys and wallet were also found inside his parked vehicle.

Paternostro and Smolinsk are both described as family men who enjoyed working on cars.

Channel 3 Eyewitness News reporter Heather Hegedus reported that the Smolinsk family continues to post a billboard on Interstate 84 West appealing for help in the case of its missing son.

Janice Smolinski met with Paternostro's mother about other possible similarities between the two cases.
