Zachary Name, 27, was last seen the evening of July 20, 2018, after saying he was leaving early for his shift at the Walmart in Hot Springs. Family members describe him as a devoted father to a toddler; it was out of character for him to leave without notifying anyone or to abandon his child. His white Chevrolet Sonic was found hours later parked along Interstate 30 at Mile Marker 86 between Malvern and Arkadelphia with the keys in the ignition. Inside the car were his cell phone, a bag of laundry, and a change of clothes — items his family says he would not normally pack for work.

Investigators with the Hot Spring County Sheriff’s Office followed a reported surveillance sighting of Zachary at the Arkadelphia Walmart on July 20, though some records list that footage with the year 2019, creating uncertainty about that lead. Zachary is described as a white male, red or auburn hair, blue eyes, 5 feet 8 inches and about 240 pounds, with tattoos of praying hands, his son’s infant footprint, a pitbull and a cross, plus a scar on his jawline. The disappearance remains unexplained and the family continues to seek answers. If anyone knew Zachary, saw him that week, or has information about the vehicle found on I-30, please come forward.
