OSBI Joins Search of Missing/Endangered Yukon Man   

The Pittsburg County Sheriff’s Office has requested OSBI assist it in a search for a missing and endangered man.  Sixty-five year old Billy Wallace was last seen Thursday evening near Indianola.  A traveling salesman, Wallace had just sold an elderly couple a trust.

Wallace was last seen driving his black, 2002 Pontiac Sunfire with a sunroof. It has Oklahoma license tag 155-NBC.  Since he was reported missing, the Pittsburg County Sheriff’s Office and the Oklahoma Highway Patrol have searched for Wallace on the ground and in the air.

Wallace is considered endangered because he is diabetic and suffers from high blood pressure.

If anyone has information on Wallace’s whereabouts, please contact the OSBI at 1-800-522-8017 or the Pittsburgh County Sheriff’s Office at 918-423-5858.
