Moses Harbison reported missing after last seen on Highway 26 in Wiggins

Moses Harbison was reported missing after he was last seen about 6:30 p.m. on Highway 26 in Wiggins, Mississippi, authorities said.

An alert says Harbison is reported missing from Bayou La Batre and was driving a silver 2004 Chevrolet TrailBlazer. He was last seen wearing a long-sleeve green shirt, black khaki pants and dress shoes. Authorities ask anyone who sees the vehicle on the side of the road or notices it anywhere along the Mississippi Gulf Coast to call 911 immediately and report its location.

Bayou La Batre is a coastal community in Alabama known for its fishing and seafood industry. Missing-person notices in coastal areas often prompt coordinated searches because of busy highways, waterways and seasonal traffic that can complicate locating a vehicle or person.

The alert was shared online and more information is available on the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency alert page. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
