James Zeno, known locally as Old School, Pop, or Zeek, has been missing from Lake Charles, Louisiana since December 15, 2017. He was 59 at the time and was experiencing homelessness, frequently seen along Highway 14 wearing a white t-shirt and jeans. He is described as a Black / African American male, 5 feet 7 inches tall, about 128 pounds, bald with brown eyes, may have had a beard, and had distinctive tattoos and scars: a cross between his eyebrows, Zeek tattooed across his chest, a horizontal scar across his forehead and a scar on his thigh.

The Lake Charles Police Department opened an investigation on January 8, 2018 (case number 18-293).
