John Risati Boyd, 20, was last seen in Cleveland, Tennessee, on January 6, 2023, when he reportedly left his apartment and then stopped communicating with family. He is a Black male, 5 feet 9 inches, about 134 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes, and is believed to have been driving a silver 2016 Nissan Rogue when he disappeared. The missing person report was filed with the Cleveland Police Department on January 17, 2023.

In the months after his disappearance, law enforcement and volunteer search teams have focused heavily on local waterways, including the Tennessee River and numerous lakes and ponds around Cleveland and Chattanooga. Searches have used sonar and divers in difficult conditions but so far have produced no definitive clues. The case is described as cold with no solid leads. John’s family says he was an exceptionally bright young man who enjoyed fishing and video games, and his sudden loss of contact is out of character.

If anyone saw John, his silver 2016 Nissan Rogue, or has information about his whereabouts around January 6, 2023, please come forward to aid the ongoing inquiry.
