Subject: Missing Autistic Teens
Date – April 21, 2017
On April 20, 2017 around 8:30pm, we were notified of two missing teens from the area of 8400 Church Ranch Boulevard.
This afternoon we were provided with updated information on both teens; While Owen Hanson and Brennan Burchard are older teens, they are both autistic and function at the level of a nine year old.
Owen was last seen wearing: a pink hoodie with palm trees on it and grey sweat pants. He is about 5’6 tall and weighs 155 pounds. He has multi colored hair, a light sliver shade.
Owen needs medication, which he doesn’t have with him. Not having his medication may lead to medical conditions and he may not know who he is or where he is.
Brennan was last seen wearing: blue jeans and a jean jacket. He is about 5’2 tall and weighs 103 pounds. Brennan has brown hair and hazel eyes.
We are asking for the public’s help in locating the missing teens.
