American Airlines Flight Attendant Missing During Medellín Layover

Authorities are probing possible drugging during his Medellín layover.

Overview

  • He was last seen early Sunday in Medellín, according to a missing-person alert from local police.
  • The city’s security secretary said investigators are looking into whether he was drugged after a party at a club in El Poblado with a man and a woman.
  • An earlier alert placed his last confirmed location in the La América neighborhood, and friends later circulated an unverified Airbnb pin in El Poblado near the international airport.
  • American Airlines and the flight attendants’ union said they are working with Medellín police, and the airline notified the U.S. Embassy in Colombia.
  • Investigators are expected to review nearby cameras and phone location data, a standard step in cross-border cases that can slow updates for families waiting at home.
