🎓 Missing Rutgers Student: Mortimer “Morty” Wortman 🎓

Authorities in New Jersey continue to search for 22 year old Rutgers University student Mortimer “Morty” Wortman, who has been missing since November 21, 2025. Morty was last seen around 10:30 p.m. in a wooded area near High Bridge Road in Jackson Township, after video captured him getting into a car in the Regional Day School parking lot, where his vehicle was later found abandoned. Jackson Police, with assistance from Rutgers University Police, have conducted extensive searches but report no new leads, prompting family and supporters to launch a GoFundMe to aid search efforts and possibly hire a private investigator. Morty is described as 5’10”, 200 pounds, with light skin, dark brown hair, brown eyes, and a nose piercing, and was last seen wearing a black T-shirt, burgundy hoodie, and blue jeans. The case has drawn added concern due to a prior incident involving Adam Zalouk, who recently appeared in court on earlier charges related to a July confrontation with Wortman; prosecutors have not disclosed whether this incident is connected to the disappearance. Morty’s family believes foul play may be involved and continues to urge anyone with information to contact Jackson Police at 732-928-1111. 🕯️💔🔍
