Nashua police are asking for the public's help finding Alexander Cruz, a 19-year-old who has been missing since Saturday. Cruz, described as a Hispanic man standing about 5 feet 9 inches tall and weighing roughly 160 pounds, is believed to still be somewhere in the Nashua area, and his family has told police they are worried about his well-being.
According to Boston 25 News, the Nashua Police Department has asked for help locating Cruz after he was reported missing. His family's concern for his safety was central to the appeal, as relayed by WMUR, which reported that Cruz was reported missing on Sept. 26 and that family members expressed concern for his well-being.
What Cruz Looks Like Now
Police describe Cruz as having black hair and brown eyes. Notably, the same report notes that while photos being circulated show him with braided hair, his current hairstyle is shorter and not braided — a detail investigators flagged specifically so the public doesn't rule him out based on an outdated image.
Police believe Cruz is still in the Nashua area, though the department has not released any further details about where he was last seen or the circumstances of his disappearance. Anyone who has seen him or believes they know his whereabouts is being urged to reach out right away.
How to Reach Police
People with information about Cruz's whereabouts are asked to contact the Nashua Police Department immediately at 603-594-3500, per Patch. Those who prefer to share information anonymously can instead call the department's tip line at 603-589-1665, the same account notes.
Police have asked the public not to approach Cruz directly, instead directing anyone with information to get in touch with investigators. No further updates on his condition or whereabouts have been released.
