Alabama NAACP speaks on support in search for missing realtor Ronald Dumas Jr.
HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (WHNT) — The Alabama NAACP is holding a news conference to discuss how they are supporting the Huntsville Police Department's efforts to locate realtor Ronald Dumas Jr, and how they are supporting the family.
The Alabama NAACP announced on Friday. April 18, it is supporting HPD in the search for Dumas, who officials believe was kidnapped in December.
The Alabama NAACP is doing this in conjunction with the Huntsville-Madison NAACP Branch, Angels Arms Women and Teen Organization and the National Association of Real Estate Brokers.
Dumas was last seen leaving a liquor store off of University Drive on December 15. His car was found abandoned on I-40 near Camden, Tennessee, on December 16, and his phone pinged heading towards Memphis hours later.
A missing persons report was filed on Tuesday, Dec. 17, 2024, and he was placed on the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency's Missing Persons List as a missing adult on Dec. 23.
In February, Huntsville Police upgraded the missing persons case to an abduction, saying they obtained 'critical new evidence' and had reason to believe five people were involved in kidnapping Dumas.
Two of the five people wanted in Dumas's disappearance, Quintarious White and Kierra Clark, were arrested in Shelby County, Tenn., on April 9.
