The Miami Police Department has issued a citywide alert as the hunt intensifies for Carlos Jose Quintana, a 22-year-old man who vanished from Miami's Little Havana neighborhood, last known to be seen on Thursday. The circumstances around Quintana's disappearance remain unclear, but police are urging anyone with information to come forward.
Quintana is described as being 5 feet tall and weighing roughly 140 pounds with a distinctive combination of blonde and black hair, light brown eyes and was last observed donning a gray beanie, a black shirt, red shorts, and blue sandals he left what may be critical clues to his last known whereabouts; his absence has triggered concern across the community due to the lack of usual communication with family and friends. Filed reports from WSVN provided detailed descriptors of the missing young man's appearance and attire in hopes of aiding the public to spot him.
In their appeal for public involvement, Miami PD encourages citizens to remain vigilant for any signs of Quintana, further stressing the importance of community action in times when one of their own is lost and in this city where the pulse of the nation is often felt and reflected in the faces of our youth, the sudden and unexplained disappearance of a young man like Carlos hits close to home, ringing an alarm bell that does not easily silence. Anyone who might have seen Quintana or has any pertinent information that could assist in the search should not hesitate to contact Miami Police at 305-603-6300 or 305-579-6111, details which have been widely disseminated by Miami PD's post on X.
