#MissingPerson- Delfino Guadalupe Lopez Fajardo If you have any information on Delfino’s whereabouts, please contact RSO dispatch at 800-950-2444. Thank you.

*****************************************
Information from following linked video and article:

Delfino Guadalupe Lopez Fajardo, who goes by "Lupe," age 47, is a long time resident of Idyllwild, CA, and is married with two children. He has been a cook at the Red Kettle Restaurant for more than 20 years. He is highly regarded in his community and by his co-workers.

On August 15, he visited his sister in the hospital. LE told his wife that he may have nearly caused an accident while driving home, enraging another driver. He pulled into a gas station in the 63000 block of Hwy 74 in Mountain Center, and the other driver confronted him there. When the angry driver started pushing him, Lupe ran and jumped over a fence and hasn't been seen since. Riverside Sheriff's Office conducted a search of the area, but didn't locate him.

His truck was found in a different area, ransacked. The article didn't say where it was found. No description was given of the other driver.

Lupe is described as 5 feet 7 inches tall and weighs around 200 pounds. He has black hair and brown eyes. He was last seen wearing a blue shirt and gray sweatshorts.

So he parked at a gas station, and then once someone believed to have followed him there started shoving him, he fled and eventually went over a fence. And he has not been found, but his car was found, which I take to mean it was found not at the gas station at which he had parked it. To move it, someone would have to have the keys. Were they left in the car or were they with Lupe?

I am surprised there is no mention of trying to find the man who had followed him. I hope they release gas station surveillance footage soon.
