Phillip Webb, a 72-year-old Black male, was last known to have contact on January 18, 2024, in St. Louis, Missouri, according to a Missouri State Highway Patrol Missing Persons Clearinghouse public awareness bulletin. The bulletin identifies him as a missing adult and records his date of birth as October 3, 1951, placing his age at disappearance at 72. It describes him as 6 feet tall and about 250 pounds, with gray hair and brown eyes, and lists St.
Louis, Missouri, as the place from which he was reported missing.
The publicly available information about Phillip’s disappearance is limited, which leaves the story of what happened after January 18, 2024, painfully incomplete. What is known is basic but important: a man in his early seventies, known by the name Phillip Webb, was last in contact in St. Louis and then became the subject of a missing adult bulletin circulated through Missouri’s statewide missing-person system. The absence of detailed public circumstances does not lessen the seriousness of the case; instead, it underscores how many missing-person cases begin with only a small set of confirmed facts and a family or community left waiting for answers.
The Missouri State Highway Patrol explains that its active missing-person information is derived from the National Crime Information Center through the investigating agency and that people seeking further details should contact the investigating agency directly. In Phillip Webb’s case, that agency is listed as the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department, with the bulletin directing anyone with information about his whereabouts to call 314-231-1212. The City of St. Louis also lists the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department as the police agency serving the city and provides the same main contact number, 314-231-1212.
Phillip’s case is one of quiet uncertainty: the public record gives his name, age, gender, race, physical description, last contact date, missing location, and the agency responsible for receiving information, but it does not provide a detailed account of where he was going, who last saw him, or what may have happened afterward. In overview, Phillip Webb was a 72-year-old Black male last known to have contact on January 18, 2024, from St. Louis, Missouri; he was described as 6 feet tall, 250 pounds, with gray hair and brown eyes, and the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department was listed as the agency to contact with information.Last Seen: Jan 18, 2024
