Johnny Lee Thompson Jr., a 45-year-old Black man, was last documented on July 5, 2019, in the Kansas City metropolitan area. His phone’s GPS later tracked to Linwood Boulevard and Indiana Avenue in Kansas City, and the phone itself was subsequently recovered near the Central Avenue Viaduct Bridge. Those points form the few concrete location clues in the timeline.

Thompson is described as 5 feet 10 inches and about 300 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. He was reportedly wearing a black shirt, black shorts with blue trim, and white Nike shoes when he vanished.

The Independence Police Department and the Kansas City Police Department are listed as investigating agencies. The case is recorded in NamUs as MP64853. Very few verifiable leads exist beyond the phone locations and the missing vehicle. Does anyone have information about Thompson, his truck, or movements in the Linwood Boulevard and Central Avenue areas around July 5, 2019?
