Rakem Devo Elliott, 33, disappeared on the night of January 12, 2025, in Raleigh, North Carolina. He was last seen at about 8:40 p.m. after exiting his brother’s vehicle following a heated argument on an exit ramp near the I-40 overpass above Garner Road. Temperatures that night were around 30 degrees and Rakem was wearing a black long-sleeve shirt with Reebok on the front, black jeans, and a black knit cap.

A North Carolina Department of Transportation camera recorded Rakem walking along the interstate on the I-40 overpass at roughly 9:30 p.m. He had no cell phone or wallet when he left the car, and officers who searched the area the next morning found no sign of him. His family has organized searches and held a vigil one year after his disappearance. The Raleigh Police Department lists the case as an active investigation and is asking the public for information.

If anyone saw Rakem that night or has information about his movements near Hammond Road or I-40, please share what you know.
