Teurline Gobert, known as Curly, was 73 when he disappeared from his Lake Charles, Louisiana home in spring 2005. On April 7 he reportedly had an argument with a family member and left the house with a small amount of money; it was not unusual for him to leave with cash. The disappearance was reported to police on April 21, 2005, and the Lake Charles Police Department lists him as an endangered missing person.

Mr. Gobert was described as a Black male with partially gray hair and sideburns that reached the tops of his ears, blue eyes, a medium-length beard and mustache, and glasses. His height was estimated between 6 feet 1 inch and 6 feet 3 inches, and his weight 190 to 210 pounds. He was last seen wearing a brown shirt, a light blue jacket, brown or gray pants and black shoes.

Few additional details have been released and the investigation remains open. If anyone knew Teurline Gobert, his habits, or saw him after April 7, 2005, please share what you know with investigators.
