51-year-old man continues search for missing partner

MANILA, Philippines – A 51-year-old appliance repairman went looking for his live-in partner, who has been missing for almost two months Sunday at the Manila Police District.

“I hope she’s still alive. I hope nothing bad happened to her,” Ruben Tan told the Philippine Daily Inquirer, adding that Lucille Larios, 51, daughter of Cecilia Perez and Lucas Larios, was mentally ill.

Tan said he last saw Larios on July 1 after her aunt berated them when they went to the latter’s house in Quiapo, Manila. Tan said they had been living in the street near the repair shop he worked for in Quiapo.

He described Larios as about 5 feet tall, brown complexion, with a scar above the right eyebrow, and only three lower front teeth. She was wearing a brown sleeveless duster and had her shoulder-length hair in a ponytail.

Should anyone find Larios, Tan said they could bring her to her aunt’s house at 956 R. Hidalgo St. in Quiapo.
