Authorities and the community of Gwinnett County, Georgia, are searching desperately for 21-year-old Dewayne Winters, who has been missing since Tuesday, October 14. The young man vanished without warning, leaving family and friends alarmed and pleading for help in locating him.
Dewayne’s mother reported him missing after repeated attempts to contact him — by phone, text, and through friends — yielded no response. He was last seen dressed entirely in black, and since that time, no one familiar with him has had any contact or indication of his whereabouts.
Investigators say the most critical clue is Dewayne’s 2007 blue Honda Accord, Texas license plate PSS6592, which may provide insight into his movements. Law enforcement is urging anyone who spots the vehicle to report it immediately, emphasizing that even the smallest detail could be essential.
Described as 6’1” tall, approximately 200 pounds, with brown eyes and short black hair, Dewayne is further identifiable by several tattoos: a spider on the back of his left hand, a full sleeve on his left arm, and a Houston Astros logo on the left side of his chest. These distinguishing marks could help the public assist in locating him.
Gwinnett County Police have been conducting an intensive search, reviewing surveillance footage, interviewing friends and acquaintances, and visiting locations where Dewayne might be. Despite these efforts, they have yet to uncover solid leads.
Family and friends describe the disappearance as highly unusual. Dewayne left behind no personal belongings or messages, heightening fears for his safety. The uncertainty has left loved ones anxious and desperate for answers, urging anyone with information to come forward.
Community members are being asked to stay vigilant, especially in areas where Dewayne’s blue Honda Accord might appear. Police stress that tips about either the young man or his vehicle could be pivotal in resolving the case safely.
Anyone with information about Dewayne Winters’ whereabouts or his vehicle is urged to contact Gwinnett County Police at 770-513-5300. Authorities and family alike remain hopeful for his safe return, emphasizing that every lead, no matter how small, could help bring him home.
