Authorities sought the public’s help Tuesday to find a 16-year-old boy diagnosed with autism and last seen in Littlerock.
Oscar Zambrano was last seen Monday around 10:30 p.m. near 110th Street East and Avenue V-8, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.
Deputies described him as a 5-foot-7-inch Hispanic boy weighing 130 pounds with short black hair and brown eyes. He has a mustache and was last seen wearing a gray sweater, black shorts and white shoes.
Oscar is presumed to be with another missing juvenile from Kern County, 14-year-old Dutchlynn Broitzmen, and possibly may be in the Mojave Desert community of Boron, according to the sheriff’s department.
Oscar’s family is concerned about his well-being due to his medical condition, sheriff’s department officials said.
