Timothy Deshun Sayles, 37, was last seen the evening of December 3, 2019, in Memphis after dropping his son at his sister’s home in the 2900 block of Grenadier Cove. Witnesses saw him get into a red four-door Toyota Camry with temporary plates at about 6:30 p.m.; he never returned and did not show up the next morning to his usual responsibilities as the child’s custodial parent.

Days later the car was found abandoned near Trezevant and Hunter, about five miles from where he was last seen, with the keys reportedly still in the ignition. His cell phone was located near the expressway off Jackson Avenue; investigators traced the phone’s last contact to the Dupont and Beaverbrooks area. At the time he disappeared he had a low haircut, a black and gray beard, and was wearing an all-black Nike jogging suit and white Nike shoes.

The Memphis Police Department classifies Sayles as an endangered missing person. His family describe him as a helpful man who fixes cars and say his children are frightened and want to know where he is. Does anyone who lived in those neighborhoods in December 2019 remember seeing Timothy, his Camry, or anything unusual that evening?
