SAN FRANCISCO -- A family is urgently searching for a missing man who recently moved to California to work for Netflix.

Yohanes Kidane, 22, was last seen at the Golden Gate Bridge Visitors Center in San Francisco on Aug. 14 after getting in an Uber in San Jose.

The San Jose Police Department tweeted on Monday detectives have learned that Kidane "utilized a rideshare service and was driven from San Jose to San Francisco. Mr. Kidane was last seen in San Francisco."

Kidane is a recent graduate of Cornell University.

According to Cornell University's student newspaper The Cornell Daily Sun, Kidane's last known location was entering a black Toyota Camry with an Uber sticker on 28 N. 4th St. in San Jose.

They attended service at Third Baptist Church in San Francisco Sunday morning where they found support from the congregation.

Family members said they will not give up until they find him.

"We're not going to stop until we do. We love him a lot. We miss him. We're going to find him," said his brother, Yosief Kidane.
