The Detroit Police Department is actively seeking assistance in the search for a 38-year-old man, Marcus Attard, who vanished without a trace a week ago. Attard was last observed on Monday, May 26, in the 20600 block of Ralston. Authorities mentioned his last known attire was a gray shirt, offering little else on his dressing details, according to ClickOnDetroit.
At the time of his disappearance, Marcus Attard, standing 5 feet 9 inches tall and weighing 170 pounds, was not just a man walking the streets of Detroit. His mother had told the police that Marcus had been battling bipolar disorder and schizophrenia, missing persons case not only a moment of urgency but also of profound concern. His brown eyes and black hair might catch the observant eye, but it is his unseen battle with mental illness that may cloak his presence among us.
In a collective effort to amplify the reach, the Detroit Police Department's Missing Persons Unit took to social media, making an earnest plea. They shared, "Please help us find missing Marcus Attard. If you have any information, please call Detroit's 12th Precinct at (313) 596-1240 or 911." The Detroit Police Department underscores the immediacy and the earnest entreaty that accompany such disappearances.
