Details of Disappearance

Akridge was last seen leaving his sister's home in the Keystone Heights, Florida on May 3, 2021. He has never been heard from again. He frequented the Florida cities of Keystone Heights, Starke, Melrose, Hampton, Raiford, Hawthorne, Gainesville and Jacksonville at the time of his disappearance.

A few days before his disappearance, Akridge had called his younger sister and said he was afraid for his life and that "I do not want you to live the rest of your life not knowing what happened to me." He has an outstanding warrant for his arrest, but he's considered a missing person rather than a fugitive, and investigators believe he may have been the victim of a homicide. His case remains unsolved.
