The search is intensifying for a 31-year-old woman, Yves M. Souverain, who has been reported missing from Broward County since mid-December, and her family is desperately seeking the public's assistance. Souverain, last spotted by her family at Florida Medical Center in Lauderdale Lakes on Dec. 18, 2023, is described as 5 feet 5 inches tall, weighing around 165 pounds with brown hair and eyes. According to the Broward Sheriff’s Office Missing Persons Unit, Souverain suffers from a mental illness and is in need of medication.
Last seen on Jan. 2, near the 3000 block of Northwest 73rd Avenue in Sunrise, Souverain was in contact with the Sunrise Police, as per reports gathered by detectives. Alarmed by the sudden silence since then, the BSO has issued an appeal for any information regarding her current location. As reported by Nextdoor, the detectives discovered through investigative methods that it was at 2:18 a.m. when police made their last known contact with Souverain.
With the case growing colder with each passing day, the BSO is urging anyone who might have a clue to step forward. In need of the public's eyes and ears, Detective Leonard Charla is the point of contact for anyone who might have seen or knows anything about Souverain's whereabouts. "Souverain, who, according to her family, has a mental illness requiring medication, was last in contact with Sunrise Police on Jan. 2," as stated in an article obtained by WSVN.
Those with any information that could lead to locating Yves M. Souverain are encouraged to immediately contact BSO Detective Leonard Charla at 954-321-4274, or call the BSO non-emergency number at 954-764-HELP (4357).
