Three Adolescent Boys Missing
Los Angeles:
The families of three adolescent boys who’ve been missing since
yesterday and the Los Angeles Police Department are requesting the
public’s assistance in locating
12-year-old David Medina and two of his friends, brothers Eddie and Adolfo Hernandez, ages 12 and 13.
All of the boys were last seen at their Los Angeles residences in
LAPD’s Newton Division. Medina was wearing a black T-shirt with blue
shorts and black shoes. Eddie Hernandez was wearing a brown
sweatshirt, dark blue jeans and black and white shoes. Adolfo
Hernandez was last seen wearing a white T-shirt with blue jeans and
white shoes.
Circumstances surrounding their whereabouts are most likely connected
to truancy absences. Recently, they had been leaving school to go to
the beach and were known to frequent a downtown Long Beach Walmart
store in the vicinity of Long Beach Boulevard and 5th Street.
Consequently, the missing juveniles may be in the Long Beach area.
The
Los Angeles Police Department Newton Division is handling the
investigation. Anyone with information is encouraged to contact
Officer Padilla at 323-846-6576 or to notify the Newton Division at
323-846-6547. During after-hours, calls may be directed to a 24-hour,
toll-free number at 1-877-LAPD-24-7 (527-3247). Callers may also text
