Ryan Hanna, 21, disappeared after leaving his Southeast Portland care facility to go to school in Gresham
Portland police are asking for the public's help finding a cognitively challenged 21-year-old man who failed to show up at school in Gresham on Monday, May 13.
Ryan Hanna is mildly autistic and is considered a vulnerable adult, said Sgt. Pete Simpson, Portland Police spokesman.
He was last seen at about 7:45 a.m. leaving his foster care facility in the 3100 block of Southeast 115th Avenue and wait for a TriMet bus near his home. He regularly takes the bus on his own to go to school in Gresham, Simpson said, adding that Hanna did not arrive at school today, which is highly unusual for the man.
Detectives from the Portland Police Bureau's Missing Persons Unit have learned that Hanna has a history of going missing, and that he has previously tried to leave the Portland area on his own, but has needed assistance to return to his residence.
Hanna is described as a 21-year-old, mixed-race male with a medium complexion, curly brown hair and brown eyes. He was last seen wearing a blue hoodie and often wears the hood up over his head.
Anyone who knows of Hanna's whereabouts is asked to call 9-1-1. Anyone with additional information about this case is asked to contact Detective Mike Weinstein, at 503-823-0446.
