Nolan William Edmonds, 44 when he vanished, was last seen on July 1, 2009, in Aurora, Illinois, after telling his father he was heading to Chicago. He did not drive and had no known vehicle, and no further confirmed sightings or contact have been reported since that conversation. His missing person report was opened on September 26, 2017, and the Aurora Police Department lists him as missing.

Edmonds is described as a Black / African American male, 6 feet 2 inches to 6 feet 3 inches tall, 200 to 230 pounds, with black hair, brown eyes and a mustache. Distinguishing marks include a three-inch vertical surgical scar on the left side of his chest and a script tattoo reading Jeanetta on his left arm. He has used the nicknames Prince and Magoo and the aliases James Green, Nolan Yates and Gino Sosio. Limited dental, fingerprint and DNA records have complicated identification efforts.

There are no known witnesses or confirmed sightings after he left his father’s presence, and what happened after he said he was going to Chicago remains unknown. If anyone knew Nolan, his whereabouts, or saw him in Chicago around July 1, 2009, please contact the Aurora Police Department.
