Juan Antonio, a 17-year-old Hispanic male with black hair and brown eyes, left his home in Cookeville, Tennessee on June 8, 2020 intending to go to the store and did not return. He was last seen wearing a blue shirt, a black hat, and black Reebok tennis shoes. When an hour passed without his return, his family reported him missing to the Cookeville Police Department.

The day after he disappeared Juan contacted his family and said he was on his way to New York City; why he intended to travel there was not explained. Law enforcement entered his information into national missing‑person databases and the investigation remains open. The circumstances of his leaving Cookeville and his reasons for heading to New York are still unknown.

If anyone in Cookeville or along possible travel routes toward New York remembers seeing Juan around June 8–9, 2020, or has information about his plans, please come forward.
