Black And Missing: College Student, Nicholas Adunagow Has Been Reported Missing

Authorities released a security photo and description as they search for the 21-year-old Cal State Fullerton student.

Authorities are asking for the public’s help locating Nicholas Adunagow, a California State University Fullerton student who was last seen on campus housing security footage on Oct. 14. Police say he was captured leaving CSUF around 2 a.m., traveling south from CSUF Housing on a skateboard. Officials stated that it is unclear where he might have been headed. 

People reported that Adunagow’s family reported him missing on Oct. 20 after last speaking with him on Oct. 13. Officials say his cell phone has been turned off, and he has not responded to calls, texts, or emails in recent days. It’s being reported that his family had no cause for concern when they last heard from him.

The Cal State Fullerton police department released a security camera image showing Adunagow in an elevator wearing a green hoodie, and included a physical description: a male with brown hair and brown eyes, 5 feet 9 inches, weighing 160 pounds. The department noted that the student was last seen at the intersection of Chapman Avenue and Commonwealth Avenue in Fullerton, shortly after leaving campus.

In a social post shared by campus police, officials said, “Investigators do not suspect foul play or find his departure suspicious. Per Nicholas’s family and friends, he has no known medical or mental health concerns.” 

Online, Adunagow has received an outpouring of concern from friends and fellow students: “I work on campus and I just saw him last week!! He seems so sweet omg I pray he is brought back to his family. Lord help him and keep him safe,” wrote one commenter on Instagram.

The statement also urged anyone with information to contact the CSUF Police Department at 657-278-2903 or chrbrown@fullerton.edu.
