Ronald Curley Copeland was 44 when he was last known to be in Pensacola, Florida, on February 22, 2021. He was associated with the 3700 block of Mobile Highway and described as a Black male about 5 feet 6 inches tall and 220 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. When last seen he was wearing a red shirt, ripped jeans, and red tennis shoes — clothing details investigators circulated publicly.

Family members reported him missing after several days without contact; his phone had been left at his mother’s residence and he was known not always to carry a phone, a factor that complicated assessing whether his silence was unusual. The Escambia County Sheriff’s Office appealed for help locating him, and the case was later entered into NamUs as MP151054 with the February 22, 2021 last-contact date. Public releases gave few details about his movements, companions, or destination before he vanished.

Does anyone have information about Ronald’s whereabouts around Mobile Highway in late February 2021 or recall seeing someone matching his description?
