A Brooklyn family is
asking for the public’s help to find a missing man who has mental health
issues.
Alcindor Jenkins, 35,
also known as Jerry, was last seen outside his apartment building at 113 Ten
Eyck St. last Sunday wearing all black with red sneakers.
Jenkins sister, Nicole
Autry, says she’s particularly worried about her brother's whereabouts because
he deals with mental health issues and relies on medication.
She says she talked to
her brother last Sunday and she was supposed to see him Monday. However, he
vanished in the middle of the night from the apartment that he shares with his
brother.
"He’s going to be
confused... might be scared. Are you going to say, 'I’m OK,' he’s going
to say, 'I’m OK, I’m OK, I’m OK...' Jerry, just come home. We all love you,
we’re waiting for you. If you’re out there, just call the police or ask someone
to help you get home," Autry pleaded.
Police describe Jenkins
as 5 foot 7 inches tall with brown eyes, black hair and a star tattoo on his
right hand.
Anyone with any
information about Jenkins is asked contact police.
