“We believe Lee may have been visiting someone at Molly Barr Trails at the time of his disappearance,” Breck Jones, public information officer for OPD, said in a news release.

Officers from both departments are tracking tips, potential witnesses, speaking with Lee’s friends, running search warrants, canvassing areas and collecting evidence, Jones said. Crime Stoppers has pledged $1,000 for anyone with information that leads to Lee being found.

“We are asking the public again for any tips, information, potential persons of interest, or any other information that will lead to Lee being found,” Jones said.

Jones said no tip is too small. Anyone with information is asked to call OPD at 662-232-2400, UPD at 662-915-7234, and Crime Stoppers at 662-234-8477.
