11 am update - Mr. Duran has been located and returned home.
The South Lake Tahoe Police Department is seeking the public's help in locating 24 year old Timothy Duran. He was last seen on April 22 and last heard from on April 23. Duran has no history of being a danger to anyone, but is prescribed medications for mental health purposes and can become very confused without them.
Duran’s mother is his care taker, and reports that he has not likely been taking his medication for a few days. Duran has a history of occasionally wandering away for a few days at a time, but usually remains within the Tahoe area. In the past, Duran has been known to wander in the woods and along roadways. He will occasionally hitchhike or frequent local drinking establishments.
Timothy Duran was last seen on Tuesday, April 22nd around 6:30 p.m. His last known communication with anyone was on Wednesday, April 23rd around 4:00 p.m. There is no current clothing description for Duran, but he is described as a white male 5’-10” and 135 lbs, with brown collar length wavy hair and a short beard/mustache. Duran is listed as “at risk” because of his need for medication and his resulting confusion without it.
The SLTPD is asking for the public to call 911 if they recognize Duran in the area.
