In spring 2011 Randall Willis Parnell, 57, disappeared from his Mobile, Alabama home after a fire that investigators determined was arson. His wife reported him missing; searches of the burned residence produced no human remains. At disappearance he was described as about 5 feet 9 inches, 160 pounds, with brown hair, brown eyes and sometimes a gray beard. He was reportedly last seen driving a black Ford Ranger, and both he and the truck were never recovered.

Authorities found little physical evidence and the case later grew cold. The case combines a missing person search with an arson investigation, but no definitive link or lead has been reported. If anyone knew Randall, his routines, or saw a black Ford Ranger in Mobile around that time, please share what you know.
