Suarez’s brother, Jonathan Suarez, was reported missing on Sunday.
His mother, Felicita Nieves, said Yessenia Suarez’s disappearance had long-term emotional effects on Jonathan Suarez.
“I have a daughter and grandchildren who are missing for eight years, and my son — it keeps hitting him. Some days are harder than others. All that we know is that my son has been missing since (Sunday) night and we haven’t heard a word from him,” Nieves said.
The family said his vehicle was involved in two crashes on Sunday night, one in Longwood and one in Apopka.
According to the Seminole County Sheriff’s Office, Jonathan Suarez’s wife reported her husband was last seen wearing a green jacket, jeans and gray sneakers. He is also without a cell phone.
Anyone who knows his whereabouts is asked to call 911.
