Ralph Dewayne Campbell, 65, of Cleveland, Texas, was reported missing on August 1, 2024. He was last seen near his home in the 16100 block of Highway 321; a neighbor reported seeing him walking in a ditch in front of the house wearing camouflage shorts, a denim shirt with cut-off sleeves, and brown flip flops. Campbell had recently been released from the hospital and has serious medical issues, which authorities say increases the urgency of finding him.

Those efforts paused the evening of August 4 around 7 p.m. and resumed the morning of August 5. The sheriff’s office has asked anyone with information to contact the Criminal Investigation Division at 936-336-4500.
