A 21-year-old man named Saxon missing since Sunday has been found dead, according to a news release Thursday night from the Boise Police Department.

Police said that an investigation is ongoing but that there do not appear to be any signs of foul play. BPD detectives are working with the Meridian Police Department on the investigation, according to the release.

Any further information will come from the Ada County Coroner’s Office.

Below is the initial story on the missing person:

The Boise Police Department is searching for a 21-year-old man named Saxon who was last seen Sunday afternoon in the area of Milwaukee Street and Franklin Road.

Police also are looking for Saxon’s vehicle, a 2014 Chevrolet Cruz that’s blue and has a temporary Montana license plate: AAKR6820.

Police said in a news release Wednesday evening that Saxon is 6 feet 2 inches tall and weighs about 190. He was last seen wearing dark sweatpants, a white sweatshirt, a tan beanie, and red and white shoes. His phone is off and he has not used his debit card, according to BPD.

Saxon’s family said it’s unusual for him to disappear and not be in phone contact, the release said. He is not from the Boise area, and the last time he was seen was when he went to meet a friend Sunday. The friend said Saxon never arrived.

Anyone with information is asked to call BPD dispatch at 208-377-6790 or Crime Stoppers at 208-343-COPS (2677), or go to www.343COPS.com, or leave a tip using the “P3 Tips” app for your mobile device.
