Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP52743) and 8 other sources
Jann Derrick Lactawen, a 19-year-old from San Lorenzo, California, went missing on October 22, 2017. He left his home around 2:00 p.m. after telling his parents he wanted to "go chill" in San Francisco. He left behind his wallet, including his identification and cash, but used his Clipper Card to travel via BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit) to the Montgomery Street Station in San Francisco. Video surveillance confirmed his presence at the station, but this was the last known trace of him.

Lactawen, a recent high school graduate who was attending Chabot Community College at the time, did not drive and typically relied on public transportation or his parents for travel. His family mentioned that he enjoyed walking around the city, skateboarding, and spending time by the waterfront. Despite being familiar with San Francisco, there has been no activity on his bank accounts or phone since his disappearance. His family, deeply concerned, has launched several search efforts, including hiring a private investigator, but no substantial leads have emerged.

Jann is described as a quiet and shy young man who was feeling pressure from college and the responsibilities of adulthood. Authorities consider him missing under suspicious circumstances, and his case remains unsolved.
