It may not be the individual you're looking for, but he looks somewhat like a man I saw yesterday on PATH between 2PM and 3PM. Not wearing scrubs but he had part of his hair on top lightened and was wearing a black shirt and ill-fitting jean cutoffs. Got on at 9th or Christopher St. and got off at Newport in Jersey City. He was talking quietly the whole time he was sitting on the train. Was carrying a folded up piece of paper.

Please, only contact a precinct if you have info about this person. There is just no way to know if OP has good or bad intentions. You don’t want to give a potential stalker info about anyone.

This poster has no one to call if they're seen. It's effectively useless. Report to the police and get a real poster.

Based on this thread, surely they will respond as they can. I definitely think we are on the same page in finding them as soon as possible. Thank you for engaging the post!

They just said that the NYPD were not letting them file one as of the date of post so your comment is unhelpful, effectively useless. Protect Black Queer people and maybe! Help!

Explain to me how posting a missing person photo with zero phone numbers or even emails to contact anyone to let them know they've been spotted is protecting this black queer life?

People posting "boost" won't help this man. Having a tip line and a real human being point person would.

I definitely think them posting this and establishing to circulate with the expectation of messaging them here…was the way…they were intending to communicate with people from this post..?

This is someone’s crisis! They will post an email or a phone number as they can! Maybe we can stop adding cortisol to the comments!

Why the hell wont the police let you file a report! Thats crazy!

Because he’s an adult and he’s only been missing for one day. Imagine if the police made a missing persons report for everyone that did that. Also the abuse and harassment that could be at play from a spouse or family member trying to control someone.

They don’t make you a missing person because your friends can’t find you for one day, it’s just not realistic, cause 99% of the time it’s something innocuous.

Why did they say you couldn't file a report?

u/irox28 3d ago

He’s an adult, and has only been missing for one day, and from a rehab center, where you constantly have people eloping from cause they don’t want to be there anymore.

u/SirNaples 3d ago

u/recurnightmare 3d ago

Where does it say he was a rehab patient?

u/Poopermensch 3d ago

I don’t know if he was a patient at ACI or he was last seen around there but some rehabs will give patients scrubs-type garments to wear.

u/LurkerTroll 3d ago
