Juan Toscano went missing in Alaska on Tuesday.
Itzel Toscano, the sister of 28-year-old Juan Toscano, said her brother’s body was recovered Saturday morning after he had been missing since Tuesday after he went hiking along the Basher Trail.. “My family and I were there for 24 hours. Many of our friends and family stayed there with us as we did not want to leave him alone.”The official search had been ended by the Alaska Search and Rescue Team at 9 p.m. on Thursday, the Anchorage Police Department said in a prepared statement Saturday.
“We were out here all day since the morning by ourselves, just family and friends,” Itzel Toscano said in an interview with KTUU early Saturday morning. “I don’t know who, but they said the rescue team couldn’t be here unless we found more clues as to that he was in the area. So, we kept looking and looking and unfortunately we found him, one of his best friends walked the entire river, what no one else did. He went down there and he walked it and he found him.
Anchorage police have not directly commented on the family’s concerns about the search being called off.“Multiple resources were deployed during the search to include dogs, drones, ATVs, and an aerial search. Searchers did not find any sign of Toscano nor any signs of an animal attack in the area,” Anchorage police wrote in their statement.said they had received a call that Juan Toscano was dead just before 9 p.m. on Friday.
Officers were dispatched with the help of a mountain rescue group to recover the body, which was taken to the medical examiner’s officer to determine the cause of death.The Anchorage Police Department also said it is procedure for them to inform loved ones that a missing person has been “located” when a body has been found in order to give the family time to process the information.Copyright 2023 KTUU via Gray Media Group, Inc.
