Leon Bell III was last seen on September 9, 2002, when his mother dropped him off at the Solomons Court Apartments on West Wheatland Road in Dallas, Texas. He was 15 at the time, about 5 feet 7 inches tall, 140 pounds, with black hair, brown eyes and a burn scar on his left elbow.

Authorities consider him an endangered runaway and believe he may have left voluntarily. He may have used the names Leon Bursey, Leon Ridley or Leon Wilson III. The Grand Prairie Police Department is investigating but there have been few public updates and the disappearance remains unsolved.

If anyone knew Leon’s friends, hangouts or where he might have gone after September 9, 2002, please contact the Grand Prairie Police Department with any information.
