A 12-year-old boy who told a relative he was going skateboarding at Lafayette Park in the Westlake area on Sunday never came home, police said today.
Kenny Kim is of Asian descent, about 5 feet 6 inches and 100 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. He was last seen wearing a white shirt with a red logo, black pants with a red stripe, and white and blue Nike shoes.
“(He) advised his grandmother he was going skateboarding at Lafayette Park, and has not been seen or heard from since,” the Los Angeles Police Department said in a statement. “His family is extremely concerned for his welfare.”
Anyone with more information was urged to call the LAPD’s Olympic Station detectives at (213) 382-6628; or (877) LAPD-247.
