No resemblance whatsoever. So no. : )Does anyone think this could be Lucas Parassas? I cant find his thread

The KCKPD responded to my FB post on their site. As of today, 9/7 @ 7pm EST, no family has been identified. The individual in question is still unidentified. They stated they are working with Louisiana state authorities. That's the latest.
I will figure out who the local news station is and post on their site as well asking for an update and more exposure. Will do the same on the KCK news site. Off for a run (with taser* ) ; ) Will post to sites upon return.Thanks for keeping us updated. Hopefully they are looking at other states. He only is in LA because a couple realized he probably shouldn't have been hitchhiking and didn't seem to know where he was from or where he was going. I think he was trying to get to Texas.
Haven't figured out multi-quote in our new home here.
Re: nose, possibly broken. What I see, jmho ymmv, looking at the nose & teeth is a person who was a thumbsucker, with a finger hooked over the nose. Sleep in the same position every single night, the bones grow fitting that pattern.
Re: airline idiocy. I can sign Signing Exact English and can recognize American Sign Language and can read & respond to ASL, in a very limited way. (That in itself is a looooong story.) Once at an airport counter, I realized that the next clerk over was getting louder & louder with a customer -- who was signing politely. I stepped over & signed "hello" to the other customer, then told the clerk that she needed an ASL interpreter -- while signing that to the other customer. The clerk cheerfully said, "No, she just needs to tell me where she's going today!" I repeated that an ASL interpreter was needed. The clerk said, "Well, you just explain that she needs to talk to me instead of you." Fortunately, another clerk had noticed what was going on, stepped over, and asked "What kind of interpreter are you looking for?" I thanked him, and the other customer, and left for my flight. No idea what happened otherwise. This was in the early '90's, hopefully wouldn't happen today?
I can't get my head around this guy standing 6 and a half feet tall and apparently no one recognizes him!!!
Unless he was carefully kept in an enclaved community. A reservation, or group home, or something like that. Ranch? Some place that had safe boundaries. He seems gentle and happy from what we have been exposed to. That is a hopeful sign of good care.That's a could call on the nose and teeth. His height and the fact that he possibly has autism makes me wonder if he is from KCK. He would stand out in a crowd.
That was my very first thought, reflecting perhaps on the movie “Nell”. A grandparent perhaps.Is it possible he lived with a parent or other relative that passed away? If so, he may not have known what to do and just left home.

I wonder if this could be Elvis Rosado:
NY - NY - Elvis Rosado, 18, developmentally disabled, Highbridge, Bronx, 18 Dec 2017
There is no height listed and the photo shown is the only photo I can find of Elvis-- it may be an old one. Their noses don't match for me but if he broke it after leaving home that might explain the difference. I'm not super confident of the similarities, but if anyone thinks it could be a match please send it in (I'm only posting here, thanks).

This fellow was in good shape and appeared well taken care of. His toys and candy indicate love and care. It’s imperative we find his loved one(s) before other placements are explored. I have a feeling his caretaker may have fallen ill, and for all we know there are many loving relatives who would assist. All speculation.At this point hopefully his new found caretakers can start making some decisions about his future. Are they willing to continue to be instrumental in his care? Has he or can he be tested for his current educational and developmental levels so as to how to proceed in his future. At some point it becomes less and less about his past and more and more about his future, IMO.
This could be a blessing for this young man! SO many times people in his situation are simply warehoused and their conditions just accepted. Quite possibly with fresh eyes, attitudes and maybe new horizons he can thrive.
