The missing update from morning show host JV has yet to be shared. The morning show host went missing on Thursday, February 24.
Bay Area radio host and DJ JV was reported missing in San Francisco. Jeffrey Vandergrift, known as JV to listeners of Wild 94.9, was last seen near his San Francisco residence on King Street around 10 p.m. Thursday.
Vandergrift, 54, is considered a high-risk group, authorities said. Law enforcement agencies have not disclosed why he is considered at risk.
He is 6 feet tall, 180 pounds, with a bald head and brown eyes. He has several tattoos on his arms and above his right ear, and he was last seen wearing black sweatpants.
Wild 94.9, where Vandergrift hosts “The JV Show” in the mornings, posted a statement on social media.
“We are deeply concerned, as we know you are, that our own JV has been reported missing by the SFPD. We work closely with them and his wife, Natasha, who is also a dear friend and member of the WiLD 94.9 family. We are sending love, thoughts and prayers to JV and will share more information as we receive it,” read the statement.
The wife of Wild 94.9 presenter Natasha Yi, also a presenter, has issued a statement for the first time since her husband went missing.
The statement included a note of gratitude to their friends, the entire i-HeartRadio family and listeners for their love, support and prayers.
She was grateful to receive so much love and support for her husband, JV. The amount of compassion for the physical torture JV has endured over the past two years has overwhelmed her and her family.
According to the San Francisco Police Department, JV remains missing, but no foul play is suspected in his disappearance.
No activity has been tracked on his cell phone or credit cards, Wild 94.9 wrote in an Instagram post Monday. “These updates are of course incredibly concerning, although we continue to hope and pray for better news,” the post continued.
Before his disappearance, 54-year-old Vandergrift publicly shared that he was dealing with Lyme disease. He was diagnosed in 2021. He said brain fog, dizziness, migraines and blurred vision were symptoms he said affected him.
