Edward Kozar, 70, has been missing from Redding, California since July 16, 2020 and is listed as endangered missing. He was last seen in Shasta County and has not been heard from since. The Shasta County Sheriff’s Office is handling the investigation and asks anyone with information to get in touch at (530) 245-6025.

Edward is described as a Caucasian male, 6 feet tall, about 150 pounds, with gray hair and blue eyes. At the time he went missing he had a full long beard and a small black flower tattoo on his upper right arm. He is also known to use the last name Farmer. Dental X-rays are not available to aid identification, which investigators say makes community leads particularly important.

If anyone saw Edward around Shasta County in mid July 2020 or has information on the name Farmer being used locally, please contact the Shasta County Sheriff’s Office.
