Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP150636)
Pedro Contreras, age 74, was reported missing from the Allerton section of the Bronx, New York, after he was last seen on March 21, 2025. His case is recorded in the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System as MP150636, indicating the time and place of his last known contact in Allerton. The NamUs entry establishes his demographic profile as a male adult and anchors the official record for the date created in the system on September 26, 2025.

According to the NamUs listing, Contreras has brown hair and brown eyes. He is described as approximately 5 feet 6 inches tall and about 160 pounds. These baseline identifiers provide a clear physical snapshot intended to help the public and investigators recognize him in the community or on surveillance review.

When he was last seen, Contreras was reportedly wearing blue pants and a plaid shirt. Such specific clothing details are often central to early search efforts because they can connect sightings to a particular day and neighborhood, especially in dense residential areas like Allerton where foot traffic and public transit overlap.

The investigating agency listed for this case is the New York City Police Department’s Missing Persons Squad, with the case number KNMP25-1682 associated to the file. NamUs provides the agency contact information and serves as the public clearinghouse for updates and cross-agency coordination. In New York City, information about unidentified and missing persons is routinely shared with NamUs to widen awareness and support families navigating the process.

NamUs functions as a national database supported by the U.S. Department of Justice to centralize missing person records and make them accessible to law enforcement and the public. Entries like Contreras’s consolidate demographics, clothing, location, and agency contacts so that any lead—whether from neighbors, transit riders, or healthcare and shelter systems—can be aligned with the official record and routed to investigators.
