Case Description

Any updates on this case? Let us know!
Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP103911) and 13 other sources
Shay Tyler Torgerson, a 29-year-old from St. Paul, Minnesota, was last in contact with his family on March 26, 2023. The following day, on March 27, 2023, he was reportedly seen in downtown St. Paul near the Wabasha Street Bridge. Since then, he has not been heard from, and his disappearance has been classified as an endangered missing person case.

There is speculation that Shay may have either jumped or fallen from the bridge, but no physical evidence, such as surveillance footage or witnesses, has surfaced to confirm this theory. His family continues to hold hope that he is still alive, despite the lack of substantial leads. Shay, who also goes by his middle name "Tyler," has a distinctive long scar on his right forearm that runs from the wrist to mid-forearm.

Law enforcement agencies, including the Maple Grove Police Department, continue to seek information that might lead to finding Shay.
