Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP27388) and 3 other sources
Bryan Lane, a 31-year-old man, was last seen on October 21, 2014, in Dallas, Texas. Standing 5'10" and weighing about 135 pounds, Bryan is described as an African American male with brown hair. His disappearance has remained unsolved, and despite efforts to gather more information, very few details about the circumstances surrounding his last known whereabouts have emerged. His case is classified under the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs), where it remains open as authorities continue to investigate potential leads.

Bryan's case is part of a growing number of missing person cases in Texas, many of which require ongoing community engagement and law enforcement attention. His disappearance adds to the unresolved cases that challenge investigators in Dallas, where resources are stretched across numerous cold cases. His family, like many others, continues to search for answers and hope for any new developments that could bring closure.
