**Family Pleas for the Safe Return of inDrive Driver Germán Santoyo Missing in Tijuana**
Tijuana – Family members of Germán Rafael Santoyo Toscano, a 25-year-old driver for the inDrive platform who has been missing since August 21, gathered on Tuesday morning in the Valle Verde neighborhood to demand his safe return. The group congregated on Cedro Street, where Germán’s gray 2017 Volkswagen Passat was found after his disappearance.
Irma Yolanda, Germán’s mother, urged the State Attorney General’s Office to investigate the case thoroughly, particularly focusing on Germán’s last documented ride to the Los Altos neighborhood. She highlighted the presence of several surveillance cameras where the vehicle was located and requested that officials review the footage to aid in the search.
“We’ve discovered that there are several cameras in the area, but we don’t know whether they are privately owned or not,” she stated.
Irma also mentioned that belongings not owned by Germán were found inside the car, raising further concern. “We are desperate, but I have faith that I will find my son,” she said. She shared that Germán was in regular communication with her about his trips due to the city’s insecurity, adding that he was heading to the Los Altos neighborhood the day he disappeared.
She called on the public for assistance in locating Germán, whose two daughters and wife wait for his return.
