In the late spring of 2025, family members of 33-year-old Devin Donell Gamble grew concerned when they lost contact with him. Devin, a Black / African American male, was last known to be in Anchorage, Alaska, on May 31, 2025. He had plans to travel to Dutch Harbor to work at a fish processing plant, a common seasonal employment opportunity in the region. When communication from Devin ceased, his family's worry deepened, eventually leading them to report him as a missing person. At the time of his disappearance, he was described as being 5'9" and weighing approximately 240 pounds, with a bald head and hazel eyes.
The circumstances surrounding Devin's disappearance were unsettling for his loved ones, given the lack of contact. The Anchorage Police Department, along with the Alaska State Troopers, opened an investigation into his whereabouts. His case was entered into the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System as MP156604.
The report to the Anchorage Police Department was filed under case number 26-3378, and the Alaska State Troopers logged it as AK26023350, indicating a coordinated effort between the local and state law enforcement agencies to locate him. The report was officially filed on February 2, 2026, several months after his last contact, highlighting the period of uncertainty his family endured.
After a period of investigation and concern from his family, official reports from the investigating agencies indicated that Devin Gamble had been found alive. While the specific details and the exact date of his location have not been publicly disclosed, the confirmation that he was no longer considered a missing person brought an end to the active search. The resolution of his case closed a chapter of distress for his family and the community. The overview of this case underscores the period of unknown that began with his last contact in May 2025, the subsequent law enforcement investigation, and the eventual positive outcome of him being located.Last Seen: May 31, 2025
