Jerome Weismantel, 77, was reported missing from Chicago’s Little Village neighborhood after his last known contact in early January 2022. He is described as 6 feet 3 inches, 140–150 pounds, with gray or partially gray hair and blue eyes. The Chicago Police Department’s Area Four opened an investigation and his case was entered in the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System as MP108440.

A DNA sample from his brother was collected and registered with the Chicago Police Department to assist identification if needed. Searches and outreach have focused on the area where he was last seen, but reporting provides no detail about what he was wearing or how he might have been travelling when he disappeared. The case remains unresolved and open.

If anyone in Little Village or the surrounding area remembers Jerome, saw him in early January 2022, or has information that could help locate him, please contact the Chicago Police Department’s Area Four.
