In a dramatic incident that occurred in 2022, the young man tried to take his own life and was found with a gunshot to the head on the railway tracks, managing to survive after being admitted to the intensive care unit.
At the time of his disappearance, Benjamin was wearing light-colored Bermuda shorts, a black hoodie, and white Topper sneakers. "He was very worried, I saw him very distressed about something, but he didn't want to tell me why. He is on psychiatric medication," his mother explained.
They are searching for Benjamin in Palermo. The last time he was seen was in the building where he lives, after meeting with a friend, and since then he has not returned. As a distinctive feature, he has a piercing in his nose (left side) and another in his right ear.
The City Police is reviewing public and private security cameras to try to reconstruct the young man's route.
Although the young man has a cell phone, the device appears to be off or dead. The teenager's parents confirmed that this is not the first time Benjamin has disappeared.
