Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP154476) and 4 other sources
An urgent search is underway for James Blount, a 57-year-old man from Rusk, Texas, who was last seen on December 2, 2025. His sudden disappearance has prompted deep concern among his family and local community members. Authorities have initiated an investigation and are actively seeking any information that could help locate him. The circumstances surrounding his disappearance remain unclear, and law enforcement is exploring all possible leads.

Blount was last seen in the early afternoon, and his family raised the alarm after he failed to return home and was unreachable by phone. He is described as a man who maintained a consistent routine, and his uncharacteristic absence has heightened worries for his well-being. At the time he went missing, it is believed he was on his way to run errands in the Rusk area. His family has expressed profound distress over his disappearance and is pleading with the public for assistance.

Community-led search efforts have been organized to aid law enforcement in their extensive search of the areas he was known to frequent. Volunteers and local organizations have been distributing flyers and sharing his information on social media in the hope of generating new leads. Authorities are urging anyone who may have seen Mr. Blount or has any information, no matter how insignificant it may seem, to come forward and contact the Rusk Police Department or the Cherokee County Sheriff's Office to help bring him home safely.
