Melanie Anne Davis, 54, disappeared from Richmond, Virginia, after being last seen on May 28, 2016, in the 3000 block of Woodrow Avenue. She is described as a Black female, medium complexion, 5 feet 9 inches, about 170 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes, a vine tattoo on her lower back and several burn marks on her neck and shoulders.

At the time she vanished Melanie had left behind her cell phone, purse, checkbook and car—items she would not normally abandon. Investigators believe she may have gotten into a white or light-colored sedan with an unknown person. Family say she had recently left her long career as a registered nurse at Virginia Commonwealth University Medical Center, was living on disability, had been struggling with depression, and had spent about a week in a psychiatric hospital shortly before she disappeared. She reportedly told hospital staff she planned to leave Virginia, but there is no evidence she did.

Her bank account stayed untouched for years except for a single $10 out-of-state withdrawal that did not lead to a break in the case. The Richmond Police Department continues to seek tips. Did anyone see Melanie in Richmond around late May 2016 or notice a white or light-colored sedan in the 3000 block of Woodrow Avenue?
