Disappearance: Nelson Antonio Paulino, 64 years old, has been missing since September 19, when he left his home in Bella Vista to take his usual walk to the Mirador Sur park in Santo Domingo. Images from private cameras allowed to reconstruct part of the route taken by Paulino that afternoon. The last known record has him walking on Anacaona Avenue, near Italy Avenue.
Paulino had been living in Sagrario Díaz Street, in Bella Vista, with one of his daughters for approximately five years. For years, he worked as a taxi driver and later as a public transportation driver in different routes of Santo Domingo. According to journalist Hansel García, the man had his vehicle in a workshop for about five days, and on Saturday, September 19, he returned to the establishment with the expectation of receiving it.
He returned to his home around 5:30 pm and shortly afterwards prepared to exercise, an activity that was part of his routine. He was wearing a light beige pants and a blue shirt. In addition, he carried a thermos with water. A camera recorded Paulino approximately at 5:38 pm while walking from the vicinity of his residence towards Rómulo Betancourt Avenue.
Other videos obtained from businesses and buildings in the area show different stages of his displacement. In the images, he is seen walking normally and following the route he usually used to go to Mirador Sur. He later crossed the Bella Vista Mall area and continued towards Anacaona Avenue. That is, until now, the last known point in which Nelson Antonio Paulino appears recorded by a camera.
When Paulino did not return to his residence, his family members began to search for him and initially went to the police outpost located in the Mirador Sur area. Mirador Sur also has surveillance and cameras in different areas. However, no subsequent recording has been released that confirms whether Paulino arrived at the park.
It was also considered the possibility that he had continued on Italy Avenue, but García pointed out that the cameras reviewed in that direction also allowed him to be located. Family dismisses known conflicts. According to the information shared by his family members, Paulino did not have known conflicts or previous situations that could explain his disappearance.
The available reconstruction establishes that Paulino left Bella Vista, walked towards Rómulo Betancourt, continued through the Bella Vista Mall area and later arrived at Anacaona Avenue. After 24 days without knowing his whereabouts, the search for Nelson Antonio Paulino continues, and any new camera recording, verifiable testimony, or official information could be crucial to determine where he went after being seen for the last time on Anacaona Avenue.
