Do You Recognize This Mystery Man Found on the Peninsula? Police Ask for Help

MENLO PARK, CA – Menlo Park police are hoping the public can help them solve a case of forgotten identity after a Punjabi-speaking man was found wandering town over the weekend.

According to authorities, the man was "walking and lost" in Menlo Park on Saturday, in the area of Santa Cruz Avenue at San Mateo Drive. After five days, they still are unsure of whom exactly he is.
