BATON ROUGE, La. (WAFB) – The United Cajun Navy has joined the search for a missing teen from Baton Rouge.
According to police, no one has seen or heard from Ja’Derrius Minnieweather, 15, since Friday, June 5.
Members of the United Cajun Navy posted to social media, saying they are actively helping to look for Minnieweather and working to support his family.
“We’re going to hit some wooded areas. We’re going to hit some properties, some abandoned properties as well, look around some high traffic areas that are wooded areas,” said Josh Gill, an incident commander with the group.
According to Gill, more than 100 volunteers recently searched multiple locations throughout Baton Rouge, including wooded areas, bridges, and highways. He is asking the public to remain vigilant and continue to do its part.
The missing teen is described as having brown eyes, being five feet tall, and weighing 98 pounds. According to the Baton Rouge Police Department, he was last seen wearing black sweat pants, a gray and black shirt, and red Nike slippers.
Anyone with information that can help investigators is asked to reach out to the Capital Region Crime Stoppers by calling the number (225) 344-7867. Callers can remain anonymous and may be eligible to receive a cash reward.
