BREVARD COUNTY, Fla. — The search for missing North Carolina teen Giovanni Pelletier is growing more urgent in Brevard County, with a group of volunteers joining the effort.
Giovanni Pelletier, 18, was last seen in Englewood last Friday. He was riding in a white Chevrolet Malibu on his way to Mims to visit relatives. He sent a text message to a family member saying “Help me,” which raised concerns and initiated a search effort.
A nonprofit called We Are The Essentials, made up of former law enforcement and military personnel, has joined the search.
The group states that they have assisted in locating dozens of missing individuals throughout the state.
