Interesting neighborhood to disappear from as there is a fair amount of violence--gang and drug related. I wonder if he has family in the area. We don't know time of day and whether he was going toward Crotona Park or Claremont Park. I work in the area and we try to get our students home soon after the release bell is rung just because there can be real danger hotspots. I hope he is somewhere safe.

Hoping he is safe, of course, but I don't like the situation.

Still no news. SMH. Not good.
But still hopeful.
