Wayne Person is still missing. He went missing Thursday, May 9th at 7pm. His truck was found running at the TA truck stop in Mocksville, NC. There was some confusion at which truck stop. But that has since been verified by the detective. Just spoke to the detectives. There was no surveillance at the truck stop. No new leads. If you have any information that may help please call Det. Cameron Jones at 336-345-6052 or get a hold of me or Ashley Person. Thank you. Please share and bring him home safe and sound.
