Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP32019) and 4 other sources
In August of 2010, forty-year-old Durrell Earl Summerour, a resident of Marietta, Georgia, embarked on a trip to Nashville, Tennessee, with a friend. The purpose of their journey was to sell a 1964 blue Chevrolet Impala. They reportedly left from Atlanta on August 15, 2010, to deliver the vehicle to two men in downtown Nashville. After arriving, Mr. Summerour continued to be in contact with these two men for the next couple of days. The circumstances surrounding his disappearance are considered suspicious by authorities.

The last time anyone saw Durrell Summerour was on August 17, 2010. He was seen in the company of the two men, traveling in a green Ford Expedition on Interstate Drive, heading towards I-24. After this sighting, all communication from Mr. Summerour ceased. Concern grew when the friend he had traveled with returned to Georgia without him. This prompted his mother to file a missing person report with the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department on August 19, 2010. At the time of his disappearance, Durrell Summerour was described as being 5'8' tall and weighing between 180 and 200 pounds. He had black, shoulder-length hair worn in braids, and brown eyes. He has several distinguishing tattoos, including a four-leaf clover on his neck and other tattoos on both of his arms. He also has both of his ears pierced. He was last seen wearing a white shirt and shorts of an unknown color.

The investigation into Durrell Summerour's disappearance has been ongoing for many years, yet his whereabouts remain unknown. The Metropolitan Nashville Police Department has been handling the case, with Detective Curtis Hafley listed as a contact person. There was a suggestion that the vehicle delivery might have been to settle a drug debt, adding a layer of complexity and concern to the case. Despite the passage of time, the case remains unsolved, leaving his family without answers. The overview of this case reveals a journey for a seemingly straightforward transaction that ended in a mysterious disappearance, with the last known sighting being with the individuals who were the recipients of the vehicle he had traveled to sell.
