Summary

22-year-old Vladek Hasel is a well-known figure in his community. Local shopkeepers, employees, police officers, and countless other residents knew him well. Vladek is approachable and outgoing, always ready to strike up a conversation with anyone and genuinely interested in learning about their lives. He is the kind of person who, after hearing a server’s story of struggling, would leave a $500 tip—while heading back to his own apartment to sleep on a deflated air mattress. However, in the Fall of 2021, something changed. Vladek began voicing fears for his safety. He went so far as to buy a knife and ask a friend if he could borrow a gun and then he disappeared. Bryan Vladek Hasel was 22 years old when he went missing from the Orlando, Florida, area in November 2021. The exact date of his disappearance is unknown. He is white, 5’8” with blond to light brown hair and blue eyes. At the time of his disappearance, he weighed approximately 210 lbs. He was born in Russia but does not have an accent. If you have any information, please contact the Orange County Sheriff’s Office Missing Persons Unit at 407-254-7000 or call 911. You can also contact his family directly at [email protected].
