FBI Joins Search For Chicago Man Last Seen At Jewel-Osco

CHICAGO — At the request of Chicago police, the FBI is now assisting in the search for a 22-year-old man last seen Friday at a Jewel-Osco store. Esteban Uriostigue went missing after he was last seen at the Jewel-Osco at 2550 N. Clybourn Ave.

Uriostigue, who is 5 feet, 8 inches tall and weighs around 165 pounds, was wearing a black shirt with red stripes and jeans. He is described as a Hispanic male with black hair and brown eyes.

A spokeswoman for the FBI told NBC Chicago that the FBI is now involved in the investigation at the request of the Chicago Police Department.

Police said Uriostigue told a friend he was leaving the grocery store at around 9 p.m. Friday, according to ABC Chicago. Relatives said he used to work at that Jewel-Osco, and that it is not like him to just disappear.

"If he was going out, he would tell someone," friend Agueda Estrada told ABC.

Uriostigue's family held a prayer vigil Monday afternoon at Lincoln United Methodist Church.

Anyone with information on Uriostigue's whereabouts is asked to contact the Area North Special Victims Unit at 312-744-8266.
