The community is on high alert as the search intensifies for Serhiy Myronenko, a 69-year-old man who was reported missing by his family on May 24, 2024. The situation is particularly concerning due to Serhiy’s diagnosis of dementia, which makes him especially vulnerable and underscores the critical need for swift action.
Serhiy was last seen in the early morning, around 2 AM, leaving his residence on foot in the 11200 block of Tierrasanta Boulevard. Surveillance video captured his departure, providing a crucial timeline for investigators. However, with limited English proficiency and the cognitive challenges posed by dementia, Serhiy’s ability to navigate and communicate is severely compromised, complicating the efforts to locate him.
Described as a white male with grey hair and blue eyes, Serhiy stands at 5 feet 10 inches tall and weighs approximately 170 pounds. He was last seen wearing red glasses, a distinctive red hat with a green American dollar bill motif, a grey hoodie, tan shorts, grey tennis shoes, and a medical bracelet displaying his home address. These details are vital for anyone who might encounter him.
Authorities are making a heartfelt plea for public assistance. They urge anyone with information about Serhiy’s whereabouts to immediately contact 911 and reference SDPD Case #24-500883. Each tip and sighting can make a significant difference, potentially leading to a safe resolution.
Serhiy’s family is deeply worried and the community’s support is essential. In these trying times, collective vigilance and cooperation can help bring Serhiy back home. Let’s keep Serhiy and his family in our thoughts and prayers, and remain hopeful that he will be found safe and sound.
