Brent Tolly Rivers, 56, was last heard from in Knoxville, Tennessee on November 26, 2023. His final confirmed contact was a phone call around 11:00 AM during which he said he was at a bonfire somewhere in the city. Brent was experiencing homelessness at the time and was known to spend time around the back of the Broadway Shopping Center.

Repeated calls after November 26 went unanswered. When a later call was answered, an unknown man said he had bought Brent’s phone for thirty dollars near the Broadway Shopping Center — a claim family or friends said was out of character for Brent and heightened concerns that something had happened to him.

Brent’s disappearance left many unanswered questions about his last movements and the circumstances around the phone’s transfer. If anyone saw Brent around the Broadway Shopping Center or the bonfire area on November 26, what can you share?
