On 10-20-2000, officers responded to a disturbance call where two male subjects were beating an unknown black male with a baseball bat. Before the officers' arrival, the victim appeared to be unconscious and was seen being put into the back seat of a light-colored 4-door sedan. Claude Pierson is believed to be the victim who was seen being assaulted with the baseball bat. Claude has not been seen or heard from since the 20th of October 2000.
