The Chicago Police Department has issued a plea for public assistance in locating 52-year-old Anton Black, who was reported missing earlier this month. According to the CPD, Black was last seen on May 17, 2025, in the vicinity of 7200 South Yates Boulevard. Authorities are especially concerned as they believe Black may require medical attention.
Standing 6 feet and 1 inch tall and weighing about 150 pounds, Anton Black is described as a Black male with brown eyes, and black hair tinged with gray. His medium brown complexion might be a distinguishing factor for those trying to identify him. The CPD reports, he may be found around the Roosevelt and Western area in Chicago, a detail that could provide a crucial connection for those in the locale to keep an eye out for him.
Area One SVU Detectives are spearheading the effort to find Black and have requested that anyone with pertinent information reach out to them at 312-747-8380. Given the lapse of time since Black's reported disappearance, the urgency of these efforts is palpable. The community's role in circulating his description and keeping vigilant could be pivotal in ensuring his safe return.
