Missing Child / Runaway Juvenile - Located
On May 7 at 6:06 p.m., a 10-year-old male subject was reported missing to police by his family members. The boy was last seen at a relative's home in the 200 block of West Walnut in the City of Monrovia. He has run away several times before and had run away from his family the day before in Pasadena. An extensive search was conducted by the Monrovia Police Department and neighboring agencies were notified, but the boy was not located.
The boy was actually located at approximately 4:00 a.m. that next morning by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department and was taken into custody by the Department of Children and Family Services. Sheriff's deputies contacted him on Rosemead Blvd. in the City of Rosemead and detained him. The boy had taken his grandmother's cell phone and debit card, and had withdrawn money with the card. Due to the fact that the boy was not truthful about his identity with the Sheriff's Department, he was not determined to be the missing child from Monrovia until later in the day, when his true identity was discovered.
