Danny Lee Jones was 15 when he was last seen in Gilmer, Texas on September 1, 1974. He was wearing blue jeans and is described as 5 feet 5 inches tall, about 150 pounds, with blonde hair, blue eyes and a noticeable scar on his right arm from a near-amputation. Authorities classify the case as an endangered runaway and suspect he may have left voluntarily, but few details are available about what led up to his disappearance.

The case remains open and unsolved. Investigators have used an age progression image to show how he might look in his 60s, but no significant leads have emerged. The Gilmer Police Department continues to ask anyone with information to come forward.

If anyone knew Danny, saw him around September 1, 1974, or has information about where he might have gone, please contact the Gilmer Police Department.
