Search For Missing 14-Year-Old South Bay Boy Continues

SANTA CLARA COUNTY, CA — The search for a missing 14-year-old South Bay boy continues four days after he went missing, the Gilroy Police Department said.

Neo Nogoseka was last seen at a dance at Brownell Middle School in Gilroy, police said. He left the campus before the dance concluded, police said.

“We are still looking for Neo, who was last seen wearing a distinctive hooded sweatshirt with a large design on the back,” the agency wrote on its Facebook page Tuesday.

“We are attaching a photo of the sweatshirt, which is a bit grainy, but should be recognizable. Please keep an eye out for anyone wearing this sweatshirt or who may have seen Neo recently.

“We appreciate all of your help in spreading the word and assisting in the search efforts. If you have any information, please don't hesitate to reach out.”

Neo is 5’2”, weighs 100 pounds and has brown hair and gray eyes.

He was last seen wearing black hooded sweater, black pants, Doc Marten shoes and a black mask, police said.

A recent photograph of Neo shows him wearing braces that have since been removed.

Neo is known to frequent parks throughout Gilroy.
