PORTLAND, Ore. -- Tyler Brady, a 22-year-old bicyclist from Southeast Portland, who grew up in Potlatch, has been missing since Feb. 27.
In an effort to cultivate new leads in the case, Portland police detectives are releasing images captured from surveillance cameras the day Brady disappeared.
Brady's roommates reported his disappearance after realizing he failed to return home and his valued personal possessions were found to have been left behind without explanation.
Despite an extensive search and canvassing effort, media coverage and numerous interviews, Tyler Brady's whereabouts remain a mystery, with no information to explain his sudden disappearance.
Photo No. 1 above depicts Brady leaving the Lloyd Center Safeway store at 1100 NE Broadway, around 7:30 p.m. on Feb. 17. Detectives have confirmed Brady stopped at the Safeway store after leaving work that evening, before later returning home. Note Brady's yellow knit cap, which he is believed to have been wearing when last seen.
Photo No. 2 above is of Brady and his missing bicycle outside the Safeway store at around 10 a.m. Feb. 17. Note Brady's white, bull-horn handlebars which distinguish his black, fixed-gear Schwinn road bike.
Photo No. 3 above shows Brady entering the Couture Ultra Lounge, at around 11 p.m. Feb. 17. Detectives have confirmed Brady stopped by the lounge with a friend, an employee of Couture, where they visited briefly with another employee before leaving to visit other Northwest Portland hot spots.
Brady is described as a white male, 22 years old, 5-feet-10-inches tall, weighing 150 pounds. He has brown hair and blue eyes, a scruffy beard and mustache, and has tattoos on the back of his neck and on one of his arms, and a pierced nose. Detectives have determined Brady was last wearing a dark-colored hooded sweatshirt with a large white design on the back, dark-colored pants and a yellow knit cap.
Anyone who knows of Brady's whereabouts is asked to immediately call 9-1-1. Anyone with additional information about Brady is asked to contact Detective Mike Weinstein at (503) 823-0446.
