The family of a music video producer is seeking answers after the 29-year-old man went missing in the Compton area a month ago during a business meeting.
Raymond Tremaine Collins, who goes by Ray Rich, was last seen by his family about 4 p.m. on Sunday, Feb. 15 when he left his home in Chino to meet a friend in Compton to discuss filming a music video for the following day, Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department officials said.
Collins was seen leaving the area of Alondra Boulevard and Dwight Avenue about 2 a.m. on Monday, Feb. 16 in his Toyota Camry.
About one hour later, a witness saw a man get out of the Camry in the 400 block of Raymond Street. Detectives found the car a week after Collins disappeared. His wallet was inside.
"There was nothing to indicate that there was a struggle," said sheriff's Det. Toni Martinez.
Neither family nor friends have seen or heard from Collins since Feb. 16. Detectives said his social media accounts have gone silent.
"I'm worried, I'm sad, I'm angry, I'm mad, because I know someone knows something," said his mother, Annie Collins. "We need to know where our son is. We need to know what has happened to him."
Collins has ties to the Compton area. His family lived there until 2006.
Collins was described as black, 5-feet-11-inches tall, weighing 160 pounds. He has brown hair, brown eyes, a mustache and goatee. Collins has several tattoos, including one that reads "Blessed" on the left side of his neck, "Ray" on his right knuckles, "Rich" on his left knuckles and "Annie" on his left forearm.
Anyone with information was asked to call the LA County Sheriff's Department.
