Authorities are currently searching for a missing American teenager named Aydin Brown, who disappeared while on a Caribbean Princess cruise ship docked in Germany. The 14-year-old was last seen exiting the cruise ship shortly after it docked on July 4 at the port of Warnemünde, according to Rostock Police. Caribbean Princess has confirmed that they are working closely with local police to locate Brown.
Anne Yaktiyol, a cousin of Brown, expressed her concerns on social media, stating that her “worst nightmare continues to unroll” as Aydin remains missing. She mentioned that it seems he may have been lured away after leaving the ship in Warnemünde, Germany. Amy Kopischke, another cousin of Brown, shared on social media that Aydin went missing about 24 hours ago after getting off the ship in Germany.
Rostock police are now utilizing a photo from a surveillance camera to identify a witness who was seen with Aydin on Thursday morning before his disappearance. It is reported that Aydin and his grandmother were involved in an argument, which led him to leave the ship. The police are urging the witness to come forward and provide any relevant information to aid in the investigation.
At this time, Brown has not been located, and authorities are seeking the public’s help in finding him. Rostock Police are asking for any information regarding Aydin’s whereabouts and are specifically interested in hearing from individuals who may have seen him at the train station in Warnemünde around 7:30 a.m. on Thursday morning.
Aydin Brown is described as approximately 5’8″ tall, with brown hair and brown eyes, weighing around 220 pounds. He was last seen wearing a gray, zip-up sweatshirt, dark-colored trousers, and carrying a large black backpack with “AMAZON” written on the front. The police are urging anyone with information to come forward and assist in locating the missing teenager.
Caribbean Princess has assured that they are providing support to the family during this challenging time and are cooperating with the local authorities in the search for Aydin. As the investigation continues, the family and authorities remain hopeful that Aydin will be found safe and sound.
