He is described as a black male, black hair, brown eyes, 5’09, 145 lbs. Latravion was involved in an incident where he was shot multiple times in December and is still healing from his injuries. Latravion’s mother is clearly concerned for her son’s welfare and safety and worries that he is around further situations where he’s at risk of death or further bodily harm. It is unknown where Latravion went, but he does have ties to the immediate Tyler area.
