Fears for missing non-verbal autistic boy, 3, ‘last seen at a playground’ after vanishing from his Colorado home

A THREE-year-old non-verbal boy with autism has gone missing near a river in Eagle, Colorado, 120 miles west of Denver.

The Eagle Police Department is looking for Sebastian Castro who disappeared from his apartment at Eagle Villas on Friday night.

He is non-verbal, has brown hair and eyes, and is not comfortable with adults he does not know.

Authorities are asking searchers not to yell or shout his name as he only responds to children’s songs and animal noises.

He is a heavy sleeper and likes to sleep in tight, small spaces.

Police received a report of a boy with a similar description at a playground at the apartment complex but the search proved fruitless.

Vail Mountain Rescue has sent a team to search the local waterways on Saturday along with a Lakota helicopter that aided in the search.

Anyone with information that may help with locating Sebastian is asked to call (970) 445-4911 or email eaglecountypio@gmail.com.
