The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department is ramping up its search for Jack Basil Cooper, a 23-year-old man whose disappearance has left his family and local community fraught with concern. Cooper, known for his straight brown hair and blue eyes, has been missing since October 23, according to a public plea issued by the LASD.

Officials highlighted that Cooper was last heard from near the busy intersection of Santa Monica and San Vicente Boulevard in West Hollywood. He was last seen donning a black shirt complemented with a black hat raising fears about his well-being as days turn into a chilly December.

In a bid to capture anonymous tips, the department suggests calling "Crime Stoppers" at (800) 222-TIPS (8477) or by making use of the digital age through the “P3 Tips” mobile app and their online portal.
