MANHATTAN— Two months after going missing following a nightclub gig, police continue to search for James "DJ Jimmy" Moyer, a fixture of Chelsea night life.

Moyer, 53, was last seen at Splash Bar, a dance bar for gay men, on Sept. 27. The former computer programmer stopped paying rent on the Rutherford, N.J., apartment he'd lived in for 20 years on Oct. 1, according to the New York Post.

He never returned the phone call offering him a weekly gig at the club, the Post reported.

Moyer was severely in debt, racking up over $100,000 in credit card advances, the paper said. In the weeks leading up to his disappearance, Moyer reportedly asked for loans from relatives to cover his expenses, according to the Post.

The Rutherford Police Department has posted fliers around Chelsea to find leads on his whereabouts, and asks anyone with information to call Det. Mike Garner at (201) 939-6000.
