The father of missing actor Andrew Koenig fears his son's bouts of depression are behind the "Growing Pains" actor's disappearance, but police believe Koenig may just be lying low.
"He's been depressed," his father, "Star Trek" actor Walter Koenig told ABC News. "He's trying to get ahead in this business, and he's been working at it a long time."
Koenig, 41, who played Richard "Boner" Stabone on the 1980s sitcom, was reported missing last week in Vancouver, British Columbia.
Constable Tim Fanning told RadarOnline.com that police had reason to believe he might still be alive.
"Electronic information leads us to believe that Andrew is still in the Vancouver area," Fanning said. "We think Andrew is just lying low in Vancouver."
