Desperate Search for Missing Teen in Starr County
In a heart-wrenching turn of events, the Starr County community is coming together in a desperate search for 14-year-old Fermin Estrada Junior, who disappeared while fishing with friends near the Mexican border. The incident has sparked significant concern and a broad search effort involving multiple agencies and family members.
The Disappearance
Fermin went fishing yesterday afternoon with a group of friends, and distressingly, he was the only one who did not return. According to a family member, there were reports of Fermin screaming for help, but he was not seen again after that. This troubling information has led to an intensified search effort on both sides of the border.
Cross-Border Challenges
Upon contacting the Starr County authorities, the family learned that because the incident occurred on the Mexican side, the local U.S. authorities could not initiate a missing persons investigation. However, the family proceeded to file a report with the Mexican authorities, who are actively continuing the search.
Community and Authority Response
Today, an extensive search was conducted in the area where Fermin was last seen. This effort included members of the Starr County Sheriff’s Office, U.S. Border Patrol agents, and Fermin’s family members. During the search, a shoe believed to belong to Fermin was discovered, adding urgency to the ongoing search operations.
How the Community Can Help
The family and authorities are urging anyone with information, no matter how small, to come forward. “This is a critical time, and any information could be vital in finding Fermin,” stated a spokesperson from the Starr County Sheriff’s Office. Community members are encouraged to remain vigilant and report any potential leads to the authorities.
