The Memphis Police Department is actively searching for a man named Carl McDaniel, who went missing after attending a party on the campus of LeMoyne-Owen College, according to reports from multiple local news outlets. McDaniel was last seen at the party last Saturday and has not been heard since. His vehicle was discovered unoccupied in front of an apartment complex on Firewood Lane, as reported by Action News 5 and corroborated in reports from WREG and FOX13 Memphis.
Described as 5 feet 7 inches tall with black hair and brown eyes, McDaniel's sudden disappearance has raised concerns among friends and family. A City Watch was issued on Monday, urging the public to contact the Memphis Police Department with any information that might lead to locating McDaniel. The policing agency requests help from anyone who may have seen him, with instructions to call 901-545-2677, a detail shared by WREG and FOX13 Memphis.
Upon learning of the incident involving their student, Lemoyne-Owen College released a statement expressing deep concern. "LeMoyne-Owen College is aware of the missing person investigation involving one of our students. We are deeply concerned and are keeping the student’s family in our prayers and thoughts during this difficult time," the college's statement reads. The institution also noted its full cooperation with the ongoing police investigation and the support offered to the family and campus community, as obtained by Action News 5.
The specific circumstances surrounding McDaniel's disappearance remain unclear. However, the central fact that his vehicle was found at the Flairwood Apartments off Tchulahoma Road in Oakhaven suggests a linkage between the two locales, his last known whereabouts, and where his car was found. Police are urging those who might have information to come forward, a sentiment echoed across media outlets and institutional statements, highlighting the community's hope for McDaniel's safe return.
