The Boynton Beach Police Department is currently engaged in an urgent search for a missing teenager, and they are appealing to the public for assistance. The individual in question is 16-year-old Valangay Numa, who was last spotted Sunday morning in the vicinity of SW 29th Ave. in Boynton Beach. Given that Numa has autism, police are deeply concerned for his welfare and have classified him as endangered.
According to CBS12, Numa was last seen donning a red sweatshirt, an image of which his family has shared. The authorities have taken to social media to broadly disseminate Numa's photo, hoping that someone might recognize him and come forward with information. The Boynton Beach Police explicitly ask the community to be on the lookout and to urgently report any sightings or tips that could help safely locate Numa.
Anyone with potentially relevant information is encouraged to directly contact Sgt. Dunlop. This can be done by reaching out to the Boynton Beach Police Department's non-emergency number, which is 561-732-8116. The police have heightened their efforts to find Numa and are working in conjunction with community partners to expand the search and leverage every available resource. For additional details, please refer to the family-provided photo and description available on the WPBF website.
