<<The tenant who lived in the apartment, identified by police as Mi Young Jeon, eventually opened the door. Inside, officers saw Kwon’s motorized wheelchair propped up inside her home. The woman, a preacher’s wife, told officers she knew Kwon from church and that he came by regularly to get out of his house and eat her homecooked meals, the report said.

Jeon seemed afraid that police were questioning her, officers noted, and told detectives that Kwon “left with some friends" two days earlier and that she didn’t know where they went, according to the report.

At a news conference held Friday afternoon, DeKalb police Capt. Theodore Golden confirmed Jeon has been identified as a “person of interest” in the case, but said investigators haven’t uncovered enough information to make an arrest in Kwon’s disappearance.

Grace Kwon, the missing man’s other daughter, said her father wouldn’t have been able to get far without his wheelchair or van. She also said he requires medication each day, and worries about what may have happened to him.>>
