Ricky Lee Frayer was 46 when he was last seen in Columbus, Ohio, on March 29, 2012. He was known to experience periods of homelessness in the Columbus area but kept regular contact with his mother until those communications stopped in early 2012. The cessation of contact was out of character and prompted a missing person report.

At the time he was last seen he is believed to have been wearing a red coat and blue jeans. He is described as a white male with brown hair and blue eyes, between 5 feet 6 inches and 5 feet 8 inches tall and weighing 135 to 145 pounds. Distinguishing features include a missing part of his right index finger, no teeth, and a plate and pins in both legs from prior injuries.

The Columbus Division of Police is handling the investigation and the case remains open. Does anyone who knew Ricky or saw someone matching his description in Columbus around March 29, 2012 have information to share?
