He was dressed in a gray t-shirt, black shorts, and flip-flops, and was carrying a green backpack. His hazel eyes and brown hair are noted in his description, along with a distinctive J-shaped scar on his abdomen and a tattoo of a star and moon on his left hip.

The investigation into Justin Kimble's whereabouts is ongoing. Law enforcement has urged anyone with information, no matter how insignificant it may seem, to come forward and assist in the efforts to locate him. The case is a somber reminder of the many individuals who go missing, leaving behind a void of information and a community hoping for answers.
