Summary based on 1 source
Joseph Alan Littlebear, a 32-year-old Native American man, was reported missing after he was last seen in Alameda, California in mid-2021. Publicly available case summaries state that he has not been heard from since, and that only limited information about the circumstances of his disappearance has been released.

Available descriptions identify him as having brown hair and brown eyes, with an estimated height of 5'9" and weight of about 210 pounds. Because missing-person investigations often rely on quickly confirming identity, these physical descriptors remain important for anyone who may believe they saw him or interacted with someone resembling him after he went missing.

Investigators have also associated his disappearance with a vehicle: a white 2021 Toyota Tacoma bearing California license plate 95679F3. A California Department of Justice listing for the vehicle includes the vehicle identification number 3TYAX5GNXMT020939, which can help law enforcement confirm whether a similar vehicle is connected to this case, has been recovered, or has appeared in records from other jurisdictions.

The investigating agency listed in public case information is the Alameda Police Department. Anyone with credible information about Joseph Alan Littlebear’s whereabouts, sightings, or the location of the associated Toyota Tacoma is urged to contact the Alameda Police Department at 510-337-8340, or to report tips through the California Department of Justice missing persons hotline at 1-800-222-FIND or by email at.

For families and loved ones, prolonged uncertainty can be deeply painful, and even small details can matter. If you have information that seems minor, it may still help investigators narrow timelines, verify leads, or connect the case to a location or vehicle record.
