A 15-year-old boy from India visiting Los Angeles with an "organized education tour" is missing, and the Los Angeles Police Department are asking for the public's help in locating the youth. Lovedeep Singh was last seen this morning at around 8:30 near the Radisson Hotel in the USC area.Singh is described as being 5 feet 8 inches tall, 130 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. He was last seen wearing a gray shirt, tan pants, and carrying a red back pack, say the LAPD.
Authorities say there is no evidence of foul play, but are concerned because Singh does not speak much English, and since he's never been to Los Angeles before, he is unfamiliar with the area.
Anyone with information about Singh's whereabouts is asked to contact the LAPD.
