Durham, N.C. — Durham police investigators are searching for a 31-year-old man who was last seen nine days ago at his home on Kirk Road.
John Russell Morris spent May 25 at a Durham Bulls game, his friends said Monday. After the game, he said he was driving to Kroger, but he and his yellow Jeep Wrangler have not been seen since.
His roommate, Douglas Wright, said Morris' disappearance is completely out of character.
"(He's) one of the most dependable guys you'd run into," Wright said. "(He's) not answering his cellphone. He didn't show up for work Monday night."
Most concerning, Wright said, is that Morris would never leave without making arrangements for his cat. The pet belonged to his late mother.
Morris is an only child, his father is also deceased and he has no other family in the area. That's why Morris' friends John, Crystal and Shannon Ignatowski have adopted him as part of their family.

"His parents may be dead, but he's somebody's kid, he's somebody's friend," Shannon Ignatowski said. "We've kind of gotten this odd little family together. It's not blood, but it's a family."
She said they started a Facebook page and are working with police to try to find Morris.
"He's an important part of our lives," she said.
Wright said he's worried, but hopeful that his roommate will come home.
"The longer he's gone, the less likely he's going to come back," he said.
Morris is white, with brown hair, blue eyes and a fair complexion. He is about 5 feet 11 inches tall and sometimes wears glasses.
Anyone with information is asked to call police at (919) 560-4427
 
There is a guy on this forum named John Morris. I honestly cannot remember what he looked like, but I do remember glasses. Sure its just a coincidence that they have the same name though.
 
Was it a night game?......................... parts of the Bull City are dangerous in the daytime. I have a friend who lived there and got a flat on the rear of his Yota 4wd downtown, driving home from Granville county around midnight, years ago. He drove home w the flat, about 5 miles.
 
anyone read the comments on the news article regarding the girl's 'approximate' age range when the deceased had been involved with her?

That is a little weird.

Simple math, if they were involved from 04-07...he was 31 she is 21 now, that means they were 23/13 then.......:eek:
 
Hard to say what their involvement actually was... it says he lived there from '04 to '07... which could potentially mean they didn't meet until she was 16. Or, he could have met her even later, if he returned there to visit other friends. It says they were "romantically" involved but hearsay is still hearsay and "facts", as reported, sometimes lack accuracy.

One article I read also says that her grandmother said she's bipolar and a prostitute and that the victim sent her money (to the grandmother) to be used for paying her rent and helping take care of her 2-year-old daughter that she basically neglected.
