Aidan Norvez, Brooklyn Technical High School Senior, Missing Since Thursday
Tessa Stuart
On Thursday, May 15, 18-year old Aidan Norvez had just finished an AP Econ exam, one of the last tests of his high school career, and he headed to Central Park with his friends to celebrate. But Norvez, who is scheduled to graduate one month from now, never came home from the park.
The teenager is a type 1, insulin-dependent diabetic, and his family believes he was not wearing his medic alert bracelet on Thursday. He did not have his phone with him either.
Since then, Norvez's family and friends have mounted a massive social media campaigns on both Facebook -- where classmates and friends are organizing a massive multi-borough search is scheduled for Monday afternoon, on Tumblr, where Norvez's friends and family are appealing for help, and on Reddit, where one user may have spotted Norvez getting off of the train at 34th Street-Penn Station on Thursday.
