Aronus Posted November 10, 2024 Posted November 10, 2024 Dozens of people gathered in Surrey's Holland Park on Saturday to show their support for the family of missing 18-year-old Joseph Maku. Advertised online as a "search party," the gathering began with elements of a vigil. Community members stood holding missing person posters as members of the Maku family addressed the crowd, thanking them for their presence. A student in his first year at UBC, Maku was last seen leaving his family home on 130 Street near 96 Avenue on Oct. 22. His sister Brenda told CTV News earlier this month that Joseph had just come back from a run, and told his younger siblings that he was going out again and would be back. Joseph directly. "I hope Joseph sees me and he listens to me," she said. "Joseph, come back home. I miss you so much." Surrey RCMP are investigating the case. They issued an initial appeal to the public for information on Oct. 25, and renewed their appeal with more details on Friday. In their update, police revealed that Joseph had boarded eight transit buses in Surrey and North Delta in a less-than-three-hour span on the day of his disappearance. The first bus boarding occurred at 3:48 p.m. at King George SkyTrain Station, and the last occurred at 6:26 p.m. on Scott Road at 93A Avenue, according to police.
