The Dublin apartment and childhood home of U2 bassist Larry Mullen Jr., where Sherman Larson was last seen.
From the BBC's website:
A search has been launched for US politician Sherman Larson, who went missing in Dublin following a tour on Thursday.
Mr Larson was reportedly last seen with his tour group at the childhood home of U2 bassist Larry Mullen, Jr.
Both the police and Mr Larson's tour company say they still have no leads about the missing politician.
Mr Larson, a city council member from the American city of Mishipeshu, was visiting Ireland on a three-week tour themed around the Irish rock band U2.
His assistant, Marisha Ferguson, filed a missing persons' report with the American embassy in Dublin on Sunday, saying no-one had heard from Mr Larson since Thursday evening.
Mr Larson represents the Armitage Heights neighborhood of Mishipeshu, perhaps best known for its zeppelinarium and large Esperanto-speaking community.
Ms Ferguson herself has come under scrutiny in the US media recently for expelling former Massachusetts governor and US presidential candidate Mitt Romney's children from Mr Larson's home. Mr Romney issued a statement today wishing for "a speedy return for Councilman Larson," but also hinted that Ms Ferguson has fabricated the story to "distract from her awful behavior regarding my boys."
In a press conference today, Commissioner Noel Conroy of Garda Síochána, the Irish national police force, expressed confidence that Mr Larson was "alive and well and would be located very soon."
Mr Mullen expressed his hope on behalf of U2 that Mr Larson would "turn up soon," and stressed the tour group was "in no way affiliated with or endorsed by U2 or its members."
Ms Ferguson had no comments for the media.
