John Edward Speights, 64, was last seen after being dropped off on Rightor Street in Helena-West Helena, Arkansas, to spend time with friends. He left behind his phone, keys, and vehicle at home, and did not return; his family describes his silence as uncharacteristic.

Speights is a Black / African American male, 5 feet 10 inches tall, weighing 185 to 200 pounds, with gray or partially gray hair and brown eyes. He was last seen wearing a blue fleece jacket, a white shirt, blue jeans, and camouflage boots. The Helena-West Helena Police Department is investigating and asking anyone with information to come forward.

The circumstances of his disappearance remain unclear and the lack of communication deepens the concern. If anyone knew John, saw him on Rightor Street that evening, or has information that could help locate him, please contact the Helena-West Helena Police Department.
