A Chelsea party, a Lyft ride, a 911 call, and then no trace: Police searching for missing 24-year-old Lynn man

Dickson "Joel" De Los Reyes was last seen in the early morning hours of Sunday, June 11.

A 24-year-old Lynn man went to a party in Chelsea last weekend and never returned home, according to state police.

Dickson “Joel” De Los Reyes did leave the party in the early morning hours of Sunday, June 11. He got into a Lyft outside 168 Shurtleff St. in Chelsea at about 3:42 a.m., and the ride ended about 14 minutes later, police said.

“Upon termination of the ride, De Los Reyes’ cell phone number dialed 911 and was connected to Revere Police,” state police said. “The call disconnected and several attempts to call the number back by police were unsuccessful. Evidence indicates the call was made from the area of American Legion Highway in Revere.
