San Antonio – The San Antonio Police Department is currently searching for two missing adults who have been reported to have cognitive impairments. The police are calling for assistance from the public in locating these individuals, who have been missing for an extended period.
Howard Lindquist, a 77-year-old man, was last seen on Monday afternoon at 12:30 p.m. He was spotted at 855 Proton Road in San Antonio. Lindquist is described as being 6 feet 1 inch tall, weighing 185 pounds, with gray hair and green eyes. At the time of his disappearance, he was wearing a black t-shirt, blue jeans, and blue sneakers, and was using a black cane. He was last known to be driving a blue 2010 Lexus RX5 with the Texas license plate MJR4113. Authorities are urging anyone who may have seen Lindquist to call 911 immediately.
Similarly, authorities are searching for Ashley Carr, a 30-year-old woman with intellectual disabilities, who was last seen on July 7, 2025, at approximately 3:00 p.m. Carr was spotted in the 10200 block of Squanto Drive. She is described as 5 feet 1 inch tall and weighing around 195 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. At the time of her disappearance, she was wearing a black gown and a turquoise fanny pack. Individuals with information about Carr are encouraged to contact the San Antonio Police Department at (210) 207-7660.
The search for Lindquist and Carr is amidst an ongoing challenge for local authorities, as the San Antonio Police Department currently has 136 open missing persons cases. Additionally, a 17-year-old named Kevin Tamez has been reported missing since Saturday, further highlighting the growing number of individuals needing assistance.
Resource constraints are a significant issue for the department when handling these cases. Sheriff Javier Salazar has indicated plans to request additional resources for the upcoming budget cycle, aiming to enhance the department’s capabilities in managing missing persons cases more effectively.
In the broader context of missing persons in the San Antonio area, the continued search for Pauline Diaz, who went missing 14 years ago, remains a pressing concern for her family. Her daughter, Paula Diaz-Martinez, is still actively seeking answers regarding her mother’s disappearance. The Season of Justice, a non-profit organization, is assisting families like the Diazes in securing funds for DNA testing that might aid in resolving these cases.
Another case of concern is that of Jose Luis Martinez, a 69-year-old cancer patient with dementia, who went missing while attending the Heavenly Hands Adult Day Center on Monday. His daughter, Nelida Acevedo, has taken it upon herself to actively search for him, distributing flyers throughout the northeast area. Robbin Blocker, the CEO of the adult day center, has expressed condolences and support for the Martinez family during this difficult time. Again, anyone who has seen Martinez or has any information is urged to contact the San Antonio Police Department at (210) 207-7660.
The search for these individuals emphasizes the urgent need for community cooperation and support in locating missing persons, particularly those who may be vulnerable due to cognitive impairments. The police department continues to rely on public involvement to assist in these critical matters.
