Cleveland police are asking for the public's help finding Robert Wallace, a man they describe as missing and endangered after he walked away from a business in the 1100 block of Center Street early Sunday morning and hasn't been seen since. Wallace, who is 5 feet 10 inches tall and weighs about 170 pounds, with black hair and blue eyes, was last seen at 2:50 a.m. leaving the business on foot.

The person who reported Wallace missing told police the two of them had been together at the business before Wallace left, according to cleveland19.com. That person called police at 11 a.m. Sunday, and Third District officers responded to the 2100 block of Stokes Boulevard to take the report. Police said Wallace is believed to have been intoxicated before he walked off alone.

What Wallace Was Wearing

Investigators released a detailed description of Wallace's clothing in hopes it jogs someone's memory. He was last seen wearing a Cleveland Indians jacket, a black Cavaliers T-shirt layered over a red turtleneck, and a Bills Mafia hat, per the same account. As of News 5 Cleveland's report, Wallace had not been found.

Since the initial call came in, Third District officers have been searching for Wallace, checking various possible locations tied to the area where he was last seen. Officers had not located him by the time of the most recent update, and the circumstances of where he went after leaving the Center Street business remain unknown.
