Police are searching Wednesday for a youth basketball coach who was last seen over the weekend walking away from his home in South Florida.<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Makuach Yak, 31, disappeared Saturday in the 300 block of SW 10th Avenue in Delray Beach, according to the city\u2019s police department.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“His wallet and keys and cellphone, Apple Watch, were all on the counter, just sitting there,” said Tate\u00a0VanRoekel, identified by WPBF as Yak\u2019s roommate and business partner.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The station reports that VanRoekel dropped Yak off at their home Friday night and had agreed to pick him up the following morning for a day of coaching basketball.\u00a0<\/p>\n

However, when VanRoekel showed up around 8 a.m. Saturday, Yak was nowhere to be found<\/a> and ended up missing his commitment that day.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“He\u2019s very scheduled, very detailed, very smart and thinks things through, and is trying to be a step ahead usually. Very uncharacteristic thought of him to miss a game, even if it wasn\u2019t dependent on him coaching it,” VanRoekel said in an interview with WPTV. <\/p>\n

“He was an All-American cross-country star in college so he does go on runs quite frequently. He hadn\u2019t said anything to me which he usually does, but I came back after the first game and everything was still in the exact same place and I still hadn\u2019t heard from him which is very unusual,” he added.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Yak coaches a seventh-grade travel basketball team in Boca Raton, according to WPTV. He also runs a nonprofit called M.T. Athletics, which uses the game of basketball to help children, WPBF adds.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In a statement, Delray Beach Police<\/a> said Yak “walked away from his home.” He was seen doing so in security camera footage around 6:30 a.m. Saturday morning, WPBF reported.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Mr. Yak is around 6 foot 4, 165 pounds and most likely was wearing workout clothes,” police also said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Yak, who is from Sudan, moved to the United States when he was 8 years old, WPTV reports.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Friends told CBS12 that when he is not in the area coaching, Yak helps build basketball courts in East Africa.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Delray Beach Police Department is urging anyone with information on Yak\u2019s whereabouts to get in touch with law enforcement.\u00a0<\/p>\n

His friends and family also have been seen canvassing the neighborhood where he disappeared, handing out posters.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“We\u2019re just trying to find a friend of ours, a cousin, a brother,” Diew Malou, identified by WPBF as Yak\u2019s cousin, told the station. “We\u2019re just trying to make sure that he\u2019s safe.”\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
