American Airlines flight attendant Eric Fernando Gutierrez Molina has been reported missing.
According to an NBC 5 article published Wednesday, March 25, Molina, 32 — who is based out of Dallas-Fort Worth — flew from Miami to Colombia on Saturday. Molina and his coworkers had a layover in Medellín and were supposed to head back to Miami Sunday morning, NBC 5 reported, citing Colombian local public television channel, Telemedellín.
Sharom Gil, a friend of Molina’s, told Telemedellín that Molina and another colleague left the hotel to enjoy a night on the town and, after meeting two men at a club, opted for another location because the venue had closed, per NBC 5.
Local authorities in Medellín revealed that Molina was last seen early Sunday morning, March 22, in the mostly residential neighborhood of La America, NBC 5 reported. Gil said missing persons reports have been filed in Dallas and Medellín.
According to Telemedellín, on Sunday morning, Molina sent a message with his Airbnb location in El Poblado.
“We are actively engaged with local law enforcement officials in their investigation and doing all we can to support our team member’s family during this time,” American Airlines said in a statement to NBC 5.
Meanwhile, the Association of Professional Flight Attendants also noted they’re “supporting all efforts to help locate our missing colleague in Colombia.”
