An urgent search is underway for Robert Mancuso, a man in his 60s who was reported missing in central Paris after he was last seen near the Louvre Museum on Monday, August 31, 2026, at approximately 4:00 p.m.
According to the missing-person alert, Mancuso is described as a man in his mid-60s who weighs approximately 180 pounds (82 kilograms). He has dark hair with noticeable gray on the sides and was clean-shaven when he disappeared. At the time he was last seen, he was reportedly wearing white shorts and a blue short-sleeve button-down shirt.
Mancuso’s family has emphasized that the search is particularly urgent because he is living with Alzheimer’s disease. He may become confused or disoriented and could have difficulty communicating his needs or identifying himself to people who encounter him.
Adding to the concern, Mancuso reportedly does not have his phone or wallet. As a result, he may be unable to contact his family or provide information about where he is staying.
Family members are asking residents, tourists, businesses and anyone traveling through central Paris to remain alert for anyone matching Mancuso’s description. Hotels, restaurants, tour operators, taxi and rideshare drivers, museums, pharmacies and hospitals have also been urged to watch for him and report possible sightings.
Anyone who believes they have seen Mancuso is being urged not to leave him alone if it is safe to remain with him. Members of the public should contact French police by dialing 17 or call the European emergency number 112 and provide authorities with the person’s location and description.
The family is also asking people to share the missing-person alert widely, particularly throughout areas surrounding the Louvre and other parts of central Paris. Even uncertain sightings could potentially help investigators establish Mancuso’s movements and locate him safely.
Anyone with information is asked to contact his son, Peter Mancuso, at +1 617-775-6726 or P.Jmancuso10@gmail.com. Another listed contact is John Malcolm, who can be reached at +1 213-300-0448 or jmclag64@gmail.com.
With Mancuso potentially experiencing confusion because of his condition and without access to his phone or identification, his family is urging the public to treat every possible sighting seriously and notify authorities rather than attempting to determine his whereabouts independently.
The search remains ongoing, and the family is appealing to the public for immediate assistance in bringing Robert Mancuso home safely.
