Family of 4 reported missing after moving from New Orleans to Houston (New Orleans Police Department)

HOUSTON – The New Orleans Police Department is asking the public for help locating a family of four who went missing during a move from Louisiana to Texas.

New Orleans Police said Steys Yanira David-Funez, 27, her husband Ramon Ruiz Crisanto, 30, and their two daughters Jazzlyn Esther Ruiz David, 4, and Dara Ismeray Ruiz David, 1, were driven to a Greyhound bus station in New Orleans on Nov. 30, 2023, by a family member. The family member told police that the four were moving to Houston and he received a text message the same day from them saying they had arrived at their destination.

The family member said he attempted to contact Steys Yanira David-Funez the same week with no success. He also contacted other family members in Texas, but they told him the family never arrived.

Subsequent attempts to make contact with the family since that time have also been unsuccessful.

Anyone with information about the missing family is asked to call New Orleans Sixth District detectives at 504-658-6060.
