Yefry Jiminez Ramirez, 17, left a relative’s home in Tallahassee around midnight on April 13, 2026. He had arrived from Guatemala in autumn 2025 and enrolled in school but left after a short time. When he walked away he carried a black duffle bag and wore a red t-shirt, black shorts, and black and white tennis shoes. Authorities note a scar under his left eye.

Yefry has made contact with family since leaving and told them he is okay and working with friends to earn money to send home to Guatemala, but he has not disclosed his location. The Leon County Sheriff’s Office is investigating and wants information that could confirm his whereabouts and welfare.

If anyone has seen Yefry or knows where he might be working, please share information that could help reunite him with his family.
