Yoni Vasquez‑Vasquez was 15 when he went missing from Summit, New Jersey. A Guatemalan national who had arrived in the United States after crossing the border in January 2019 and was placed with his grandfather in Summit, Yoni was last seen on February 27, 2019. His grandfather reported him missing to the Summit Police Department on March 1, 2019.

Yoni left the home with all of his personal belongings, including his Guatemalan passport, clothing, and about $200 in cash. He is described as a Hispanic male with black hair and brown eyes, approximately 5 feet 6 inches and 140 pounds. His prepaid Boost mobile phone last pinged near the 73rd Precinct in Brooklyn, New York on February 28, 2019, and then the trail went cold. The investigation remains open and very few details have emerged since.

If anyone knew Yoni, saw him in late February 2019, or has information about his Boost phone’s movements, please contact the Summit Police Department with what you know.
