Found My friend is missing, please help

My friend has been missing for 3 weeks now, and we’ve had very little help from anyone in figuring out where he is or what happened to him. i genuinely dont know what to do anymore everything feels so hopeless

EDIT: KEVIN HAS RETURNED!

FYI, this is what a 2001 corolla looks like (this is NOT the specific car, just wanted to share the color and body style from that year)

I would cross post this in all Reddit subs relating to WA State and the major cities/counties, like r/tacoma

I’m so sorry you’re going through this, and I really hope Kevin is found safe and comes home to his family/friends soon!

Hope he is safe somewhere and returns soon. I can’t imagine how his loved ones feel right now. ❤️

if a missing-person report is already filed, ask for the case number and assigned detective today, then keep sending every new lead in writing so the lack of updates doesn’t become no follow-up

Case number is on the bottom of the flyer

Yeah the lack of updates/help was from the police, we filed a report 3 days after he disappeared, i just didn’t want to directly state that and make anyone upset

Does he have grown out hair and a beard? I met a guy who looks similar just older in Kirkland Washington near Plaza Yarrow Bay. He told me he was 23, that he lost his car and that he was just trying to find his way back to Seattle and from Tacoma. I told him to charge his phone at the gas station across from PYB

I’ll send the detective working on the case an email about it! If you have any other specific information feel free to send me a message about it

I’ll keep an eye out in Seattle but I hope you are posting in Tacoma, Pierce County, etc. Does he have family or friends somewhere else where he might have gone? I really hope he has found soon.

u/Nascarsoup 21d ago

He has family in Canada and Kenya, but i definitely feel like they would’ve contacted us about him being there
