Sep. 20—Reading police are asking for the public's help in locating a man who was in the vicinity of the spot where a missing city taxi driver was last seen over a month ago.
The man's image was captured on security footage in the area of 10th and Walnut streets around the time Darlyn De La Rosa-Abreu disappeared. The man is described as a Latino between the ages of 25 and 35 and about 6 feet tall.
Police did not identify the man as a suspect in the taxi driver's disappearance, only saying they want to locate him as part of the search for Rosa-Abreu.
Rosa-Abreu has been missing since early August.
He was last seen picking up a taxi fare passenger at 10th and Walnut streets at about 1:40 a.m. on Aug. 8. His vehicle was seen leaving Reading over the Penn Street Bridge.
He was last seen driving a white 2015 Toyota Corolla with a license plate number KTT-2497. The vehicle is also missing.
Rosa-Abreu is 30 and described as about 5 feet 9 inches with light skin, brown hair and brown eyes.
