On February 26, 2012, Eli Rabago MP went missing from his grandparents home in Tuscon Arizona. MP (Rabago) is developmentally disabled and his family believes that he had recently learned how to use a bus, interfering with their efforts to locate him.
In Tuscon, the MP's (Rabago's) family distributed approximately 2,000 flyers with information about MP (Rabago's) disappearance. The family believes that the MP (Rabago) left his grandparents house because he was anxious about an upcoming AIMS testing and worried about his terminally ill Grandfather.
On today's date, while conducting foot patrol at Plummer Park, in the City of West Hollywood, California, a deputy observed a male Hispanic sleeping in a cream colored sleeping bag near the tennis courts. The deputy contacted the male Hispanic and conducted a wanted person check via his mobile digital computer (M.D.T.).
The return showed that the young man that he had contacted, MP (Eli Rabago) was a critical missing person from Tucson, Arizona. MP (Eli Rabago) was classified as a critical missing person due to his diminished mental capacity and his need for medication.
MP (Rabago) advised the deputy that he hopped a train from Arizona to Los Angeles and had been in California for approximately a week. Once in Los Angeles, he showered at youth centers and ate from local food lines.
Pima County Sheriff's Department was advised that MP (Rabago) had been located. The deputy notified the MP's (Rabago) mother, Martta Rabago who stated she was relieved her son had been found. She stated that she and her husband Ruben Rabago would immediately fly to California to pick-up their son.
