Missing From: Myrtle Beach, South Carolina
Missing: August 5, 2012
Age at Disappearance: 43
Height: 5′ 6″
Weight: 140
Hair: Black
Eyes: Brown
Distinguishing Characteristics: Scars, Marks, Tattoos: African-American male. Brown is a dependent adult. He gets confused easily, is frightened of thunder and lightning, and doesn’t like to be touched or approached quickly. He also has a severe speech impediment that makes it difficult for others to understand him.
Details of Disappearance: Brown is from Cartersville, Georgia. He and his family were visiting Myrtle Beach, South Carolina at the time of his disappearance on August 5, 2012. They were staying at the Sea Crest hotel in the 800 block of south Ocean Boulevard.
Brown walked away from his hotel and was last seen talking to a woman near an ice cream shop. He has never been heard from again. It was the first vacation outside of Georgia he’d ever been on, so he was unfamiliar with the area.
Brown left his wallet and other belongings behind when he vanished, and he doesn’t have a cellular phone. He may have had his hotel room key on him, though. There were possible sightings of Brown in the Myrtle Beach area in the days following his disappearance. His loved ones believe he may have tried to get back home to Cartersville, but there’s no evidence that he ever arrived there. His case remains unsolved.
