Sacramento police looking for missing 25-year-old last seen downtown on New Year’s Eve
Police are looking for a man missing since New Year’s Eve last seen in downtown Sacramento.
The Sacramento Police Department said Alexander Holden, 25, was last seen wearing a tan pullover jacket, is 6-foot-1 and about 190 pounds.
A Reddit post created Wednesday said that he had been walking from the corner of 22nd and I streets headed toward Natomas at 2:30 a.m.
The poster said Holden “got in an argument late at night and said he was going to walk to an old home in Natomas to sleep there. He’s done the walk / run before; following the Sacramento Northern Bikeway.”
Family told police that Holden’s disappearance was uncharacteristic. The police department asked anyone with information regarding Holden’s whereabouts to call 911.
Alexander Holden is the son of Calvin Holden and Margaret Palmietto, both judges in Missouri, as reported by the Springfield News-Leader. Alexander is the nephew of former Missouri Gov. Bob Holden, Calvin’s brother.
Calvin Holden told the News-Leader that his son has lived in Sacramento for about two years, works at Amazon and had no history of disappearing. He told the newspaper Thursday that he was en route to Sacramento from a vacation in Australia, and his ex-wife, Palmietto, was also bound for Sacramento.
