The residents of Morón, located in Ciego de Ávila, Cuba, are in a state of desperation as they search for an elderly man who has been missing for nearly a week. Yamilka Llánez Villanueva, the man's daughter, has taken to Facebook to share photos of her father, pleading with the community for assistance in locating him.

The missing man, known as Heriberto, also responds to the surname Llánez or the nickname Íñe. He has not been seen since the morning of Monday, November 11. According to his family, Heriberto does not suffer from any mental health issues and left home without carrying any identification or a phone.

Community Urged to Help Locate Heriberto

Daniel Yamilkason, Heriberto's grandson, also reached out on Facebook, urging anyone who spots his grandfather to immediately contact his mother at the phone number 53156657. He requested that people engage Heriberto in conversation and try to detain him until family members can arrive.

In a subsequent post, Yamilka emphasized her willingness to offer a reward for any information leading to her father's return and highlighted the family's relentless search efforts. "I don't have images of what he was wearing, but I've been told he left in a light blue shirt, gray or brown pants, a black cap, and carrying a white bag," she noted.

"I am infinitely grateful to family, friends, and strangers alike for all the support," she expressed in another message.
