15-year-old Adrijan from Passau missing – police ask for help!
The police in Passau are concerned about a missing 15-year-old: Adrijan Konovalov has been missing since June 30, 2025. The teenager who did not return home after visiting relatives is causing growing concern in the region. Antenne Deutschland reports that Adrijan was born as a Serbian citizen in Offenbach, Hesse, and is around 1.55 meters tall. He has a strong build and has dark brown, curly hair that is cut short on the sides. A special feature is that he wears braces.
The Passau police have already initiated extensive search measures, but so far the efforts have been unsuccessful. Adrijan has not been seen since his last visit and officials do not yet have any firm information about the clothing he was wearing at the time of his disappearance. The public is therefore asked for help in obtaining possible information. Information could be given to the Passau police station on 0851/9511-0 or to any other police station, as the Passauer Neue Presse emphasizes.
Background to missing person cases
What do the statistics say about missing people in Germany? According to the [Federal Criminal Police Office](https://www.bka.de/DE/ UnserAufgabe/Ermittlungsunterstuetzung/BearbeitungVermisstenfaelle/arbeitungVermisstenfaelle.html), a person is considered missing if they remain unexplainedly away from their whereabouts and there is a potential danger to life or limb. The situation is taken particularly seriously when it comes to minors, as they are often considered to be in need of protection. In 2024, around 18,100 children were reported missing, achieving an impressive clearance rate of 96.7%.
The police are usually responsible for the direct search for people, while the BKA is responsible for coordinating. It often requires large-scale search operations, which also include the support of riot police and emergency services. In Adrijan's case, the public's help is being relied upon to clarify his whereabouts. Therefore, all citizens are called upon to be careful and pass on information.
The latest developments in this case are worrying and the relatives have great hope for the public's support. It remains to be hoped that Adrijan will be found soon and this worrying situation will come to an end. The police have not given up hope that the 15-year-old will return safely.
