A Chicago father is asking for help to find his missing 23-year-old son who was last seen being dropped off at O’Hare International Airport on Friday evening.
Relatives said they’re doing everything they can to find Elijah Hoard.
Antwon Hoard, Elijah’s father, said his son grew up in France and lives there with his mother. But on Feb. 17, his son arrived in Chicago for a visit after not seeing each other for the past two years.
“He was really happy to be here,” Antwon Hoard said. “And the 10-day stay went like, fantastic, you know. I’m saying he had a little bit of blues, you know, at the end, not really want to go back, because he was sad and having such a good time here.”
This past Friday, Antwon Hoard dropped off his son at O’Hare Airport’s Terminal 5 – where most international flights takeoff – so he could fly back to France.
“I was able to just walk them through the doors at the airport, got them in front of the kiosk, you know, we gave each other a big hug or whatever, took a nice little selfie together, and I wished him well on this trip,” Antwon Hoard said.
The next day, Antwon Hoard discovered that his son never got on the plane.
“I tried to text him, he didn’t answer,” the father said. “Tried to call, he didn’t answer the phone.”
Both his mother in France and family members in Chicago are concerned because Elijah suffers from a medical issue that requires medication, which he needs in the next 10 days.
His mother said Chicago police detectives are trying to figure out where Elijah went after going through security and walking off to another terminal. The 23-year-old is said to be 6 feet 5 inches tall and 220 pounds.
Elijah’s father said his son has a heavy French accent, adding “you can’t miss this guy.”
“I want my son home,” he said. “He’s a special kid, and he means a lot to a lot of different people.”
If you spot Elijah – his family asks you to call the Chicago Police Department’s Special Victims Unit.
