Taniya Brinson, a 21-year-old Black woman, was last seen on May 26, 2024, in the 2300 block of Linden Avenue in Knoxville, Tennessee. She is described as 5 feet 9 inches to 5 feet 10 inches tall, 130 to 140 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. That day she told acquaintances she was going to do someone’s hair but did not say where, and after that she has not been seen or heard from.

Her disappearance was reported to the Knoxville Police Department on May 30, 2024, and the case is being handled under agency case number 24-017414. Investigators have focused on the unspecific appointment location as a key gap in the timeline of her last known movements. The circumstances of her disappearance remain unclear and the search is ongoing.

If anyone knew Taniya’s plans that day, the location she intended to visit, or has information about her whereabouts, please share what you know.
