Montgomery County police are seeking information about Lawrence Adetunji, 72, and have asked the public for assistance.
Detectives from the Montgomery County Department of Police’s 4th District Investigative Section issued the appeal Wednesday afternoon, according to a notice posted by the Montgomery County Department of Police
on X. The department asked the public for assistance locating Adetunji.
Police are asking anyone with information about Adetunji to contact the department.
What to Do If You Have Information
Police ask anyone with information about Adetunji’s whereabouts to call the Montgomery County Police Non-Emergency line at 301-279-8000, which the department says is staffed around the clock.
Similar appeals have gone out from the same investigative section in the past. The department’s 4th District detectives previously sought the public’s help locating Manuel De Jesus Marquez, described in a social media notice as a missing 84-year-old, and in 2024 asked for assistance finding Andrew Mostyn Jr., a 23-year-old reported missing from Silver Spring, according to Montgomery County, MD.
Public Assistance Requested
Maryland Silver Alert and Missing-Person Guidance
A Silver Alert is for a missing adult with a cognitive impairment whose disappearance poses a credible threat to the person’s health and safety, according to the Maryland Department of State Police.
For a separate missing-person report, Maryland State Police says there is no waiting period. That general guidance is distinct from the request for tips in Adetunji’s case.
Anyone with information about Adetunji is urged to call the non-emergency number above.
