Terrence Anthony Jones Missing in Anchorage, Alaska: What Is Known About His 2024 Disappearance

Terrence Jones, identified by the name Terrence Anthony Jones in some public-facing references, has been missing from Anchorage, Alaska, since June 7, 2024. Official missing-person records reviewed for this article identify him as Terrence Jones. He was 46 years old when he disappeared.

The Alaska Department of Public Safety continues to include Jones in its missing-person records, and his NamUs case remains associated with MP135396. The Anchorage Police Department is the investigating agency, with Alaska’s statewide database listing APD case number 240032697.


Last Known Contact in Anchorage

According to information sourced from NamUs, Jones was last contacted in Anchorage on June 7, 2024. Publicly available case information does not identify a more precise last-known address or location within Anchorage, nor does it provide details about who last communicated with him or the circumstances surrounding that contact.

Jones was listed as 46 years old, 5 feet 10 inches tall, and approximately 165 pounds. Alaska’s missing-person database identifies him as a Black male.

Because the available official information describes his final known event as a contact rather than a confirmed eyewitness sighting, it is important not to add a specific last-seen location, activity, vehicle, companion, or direction of travel unless authorities release that information.


What Happened to Terrence Jones?

Very little about the circumstances leading up to Jones’ disappearance has been publicly released.

The known sequence begins on June 7, 2024, when Jones was last contacted in Anchorage. His disappearance was subsequently entered into law-enforcement missing-person systems. The Alaska Department of Public Safety identifies the Anchorage Police Department as the investigating agency and associates the investigation with case 240032697.

NamUs identifies the case as MP135396, while current missing-person indexes continue to show Jones as missing.

No reliable public source located for this review describes evidence of foul play, a confirmed accident, a voluntary departure, a known destination, or circumstances establishing that Jones became the victim of a homicide. Those possibilities should therefore not be presented as facts.


Latest Information on the Investigation

As of August 19, 2026, Jones continues to appear in current missing-person resources as missing. Alaska’s public missing-person data still lists Terrence Jones, Anchorage Police Department case 240032697, with the date June 7, 2024. Current CaseTrace records sourced to NamUs likewise continue to list him as missing under MP135396.

No publicly released announcement located during this review reports that Jones has been found, identifies a suspect or person of interest, announces an arrest, or states that investigators have determined what happened to him.

That lack of publicly released information does not necessarily mean that investigators have no leads. Missing-person investigations can contain witness statements, phone or financial records, surveillance information, or other evidence that authorities do not make public while a case remains open.

Anchorage Police currently maintains a Homicide/Missing Persons/Cold Case function within its Violent Crimes Unit. People with relevant information should provide it directly to law enforcement rather than posting potential evidence or unverified accusations publicly.

Why Terrence Jones’ Case Still Matters

More than two years after Jones’ last known contact, the most basic question remains unanswered: Where is Terrence Jones?

Cases with limited public information can be especially difficult to keep visible. A photograph, a remembered conversation, information about someone’s plans, a vehicle sighting, digital communication, or another seemingly minor detail may have greater significance when placed alongside information already known to investigators.

Anyone who knew Jones or had contact with him around June 7, 2024 could potentially possess information relevant to reconstructing his movements.

Tips should be directed to the Anchorage Police Department and should reference case 240032697 whenever possible.
