Andrew Chase Castillo, 31, of Dallas, Texas, has been missing since September 9, 2022. His last known location was the Dallas Veterans Medical Center, where he had been admitted after a call to a suicide hotline. A welfare check by Waxahachie police at his family’s request led to his transport to the medical center because of concerns for his mental health.

Castillo, who struggled with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and suicidal ideation, was discharged from the facility shortly after admission and did not make contact with family or friends afterward, which was described as highly uncharacteristic. At the time he went missing he was wearing a black shirt with a white skull design, dark jeans, and black sneakers, and was carrying military-issued gear including an army green camouflage backpack and a duffel bag. The family asks anyone with information to contact the Ellis County Sheriff’s Department.

Did anyone in the Dallas or Waxahachie area see Castillo after his discharge on September 9, 2022?
