Any updates on this case? Let us know!
Larry Stovall was 18 years old when he was last reported in West Haven, Connecticut, on June 13, 2009. Public case listings identify him as a Black male, about 6 feet tall and 165 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. His NamUs case number was MP3698, and the listed investigating agency was the West Haven Police Department. The available public information is limited, but the details that were released describe a young man in a moment of serious emotional distress, not simply a disappearance without context.

According to public summaries attributed to NamUs, Larry stated that he wanted to harm himself, then ran out the back door. The same public case information notes that he had a history of depression and that he was listed as a runaway. Those details make the case especially painful, because they point to a crisis unfolding suddenly and urgently, with loved ones and authorities trying to account for him after he left. The available sources do not provide a fuller timeline of where he may have gone after leaving, what he may have been wearing, whether he had transportation, or whether any confirmed sightings followed.

Larry’s case was connected to West Haven, a city in New Haven County, and public records list the date of last contact as June 13, 2009. Uncovered’s case page repeated the NamUs-based circumstances and listed the same core identifiers: age 18, NamUs number MP3698, West Haven as the location, and basic physical descriptors. The International Missing Persons Wiki also summarized him as a young man who ran away from home in West Haven after telling family he wished to harm himself, and it classified the matter as an endangered missing case in its own listing.

The attached case data indicates caseresolutionstatus = Alive, which means Larry Stovall was found alive and this is no longer an active missing-person case. The exact date and circumstances of that resolution are not made clear in the available public information reviewed here, so the safest and most compassionate account is that the once-public missing-person record has since been resolved without a publicly detailed recovery timeline. In overview, Larry Stovall’s case began as the disappearance of an 18-year-old West Haven young man during an apparent mental-health crisis on June 13, 2009; public summaries described him as depressed, endangered, and listed as a runaway, while later case data indicates that he was ultimately found alive, closing the matter as an active missing-person case.
