On February 25, 2019, a 60-year-old male identified as Anderson Clark was declared deceased after being struck by a motor vehicle in Downtown Memphis, Tennessee. The incident occurred on February 24, 2019, and Clark succumbed to his injuries at Regional One Health in the early hours of the following day, specifically at 0007 hours. Identification of the deceased was confirmed through fingerprints, which were sent to the FBI for verification. Despite this positive identification, efforts to locate, identify, or notify any next-of-kin have thus far been unsuccessful.
Anderson Clark was reported to have been homeless, residing in a downtown shelter in Memphis. His circumstances and lack of located family members have left his case unresolved in terms of familial claims. Due to the inability to connect with any relatives, arrangements have been made for Clark's remains to be interred at the Shelby County Cemetery, a common resting place for individuals in similar unclaimed situations.
The Memphis Police Department is the overseeing agency for this case. Their responsibility extends beyond the investigative realm, attempting to provide dignity and closure for cases involving unclaimed persons. The department can be contacted at their office located at 170 North Main, Memphis, Tennessee. For inquiries, they can be reached via telephone at 901-636-4450, or through their website at http://www.memphispolice.org/. The ongoing nature of this case indicates a hope that future developments might result in the discovery or contact of next-of-kin, providing a resolution and a more personal resting place for Anderson Clark.
