The Family of Mizzou college student Riley Strain are living their worst nightmare, the family is in Nashville now. I am a long time friend of Milli and Ryan.
The cost of hotel, food, and travel are things I wouldn’t want anyone to worry about during this stressful time.

This is what we know as of now….

He has since been declared an officially missing person. Police recently released a video of the last time Riley was captured on surveillance cameras.

We have worked on a timeline in the disappearance of the 22-year-old while he was in Nashville, Tennessee with his fraternity.

-Riley was with a group of friends at the Luke Bryan bar located at 301 Broadway. He was having a very good time.

-Sometime before 10:00 p.m., Riley was asked to leave the bar. The reasoning for this is still unknown.

-At approximately 9:47 p.m. Riley is seen on camera walking across a street with a crowd of people. Riley appears to be in a very good mood in the video, joking with fellow pedestrians. Riley is taking visibly large steps. Riley is a 6'5 young man that weighs 160 lb. He is quite tall so the long stride makes sense, especially if he was drinking that evening as reported. The screen captures make it look as if he is running but he is not running in the video. At the end of the video Riley is seeing sort of spinning around and stumbling for a moment before turning back around and following a female in a cowboy hat and another pedestrian. Police would like to speak to any pedestrians that were present at that time. Riley was wearing a black and white shirt. One side of the shirt was black and the other side of the shirt was white. He was wearing jeans with boots. His height would have made him memorable.

-Riley's friends begin looking for him shortly after this video. They cannot find him. They utilized Snapchat's location feature, and were unable to locate him. They also tried texting and calling him non-stop but to no avail.

-At 11:00 p.m. Riley's phone pings by the Sheriff's office and the river. Riley's friends have still not heard from him.

-At 1:46 p.m. a 911 call comes in from Brayden Baltz, a fraternity brother of Riley Strain. Braden and some of Riley's friends walked to the precinct in the opposite direction of where Riley's phone pinged, most likely because it was the precinct they found the easiest as it was the closest to the bar. On the 911 call Mr Baltz sounds concerned and expresses that he does not have an address but he is trying to file a missing person report. The police officer asks if they are in their vehicle or at the precinct and Brayden informs him they are waiting at the doors of the precinct. An officer comes out and the search continues.

-No one has seen Riley Strain after he is spotted on video. Riley will be circled in the photographs. His family and friends are worried sick.

If you know anything at all about the disappearance of Riley Strain please call 911 immediately or 1-615-862-8600. You can also call your local police department and say that you have spotted Riley. You can choose to remain anonymous.

The family and friends of Riley truly appreciate your help.
