A Queens family is desperately searching for a deaf relative who vanished hours after arriving in New York.
According to NY1 News, Damon Mootoo.disappeared around 10 o’clock on Wednesday morning, just a few hours after arriving from Guyana.
Relatives said he went for a walk near their home on 152nd Street and 123rd Avenue, but never returned.
“We’ve been all over the neighbourhood,” said Navin Mootoo. “We’re further away from the neighbourhood. We’re putting fliers everywhere hoping somebody will see him”, the TV channel reported.
“He don’t have no ID,” added a friend. “He don’t have no money no nothing, and he don’t know his way around anywhere.” Mootoo was last seen wearing dark blue jeans, a light hooded sweat shirt, a navy blue jacket, and a gray wool cap.
