The police are urging anyone who might see him or have information on his whereabouts to immediately call the Metro Nashville PD at 615-862-8600.

These alerts are crucial in helping to ensure the safe return of individuals who may not be able to help themselves.

Driving a 2010 white Honda Accord, the vehicle Escobar was last seen in, has been central to the police's message, emphasizing the details of the car in hopes that someone might recognize it.
