The Miami-Dade Sheriff's Office is asking for the community's assistance in the case of a missing teenager, 16-year-old Jhiovanny Cabrera, who has not been seen for the past three weeks. Cabrera was reported to have last been seen on Oct. 21, in the vicinity of the 900 block of Southwest 74th Court, as noted by Local 10 News in their coverage of the story.
The youth is described as being approximately 5 feet, 5 inches tall, with a weight around 130 pounds, and characterized by brown hair and eyes. The Miami-Dade Sheriff's Office has released these details to aid the public in identifying Cabrera, though it's unspecified what clothing he might have been wearing at the time he went missing. They have implored to anyone that may be in possession of information about Jhiovanny's current location to come forward and help them to piece together his whereabouts.
Authorities have expressed concern for the well-being of the teenager, indicating that he "may be in need of services," a phrase echoed in statements made to WSVN. No further elaboration concerning the nature of these services or the circumstances of his disappearance has been provided by the officials.
Deputy M. Ritch Jr. of the Miami-Dade Sheriff's Office is the point of contact for anyone with leads or information. Calling the numbers 305-715-3300 for the office or 305-715-3257 for Ritch's desk remains the primary avenue to pass on information directly to law enforcement. Additionally, concerned individuals can also choose to remain anonymous by providing tips to Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at 305-471-TIPS (8477), as per the reporting by WSVN.
Anyone with potentially relevant information is once again urged to step forward and contact the MDSO or Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers.
