MISSING MAN SOUGHT

Henry County sheriff's investigators are working with Eden, N.C., police to find a missing man last seen in the Sandy Level area.

"We don't know if he's just doing his own thing or if he's in some trouble or what," said Sgt. K.G. Nester of the Sheriff's Office.

Mark Anthony Pratt, 45, of Eden hasn't been seen since 5 p.m. on Feb. 2, near Saturn Road, not far from the North Carolina border, and just a few miles from his hometown.

Pratt is a white male, 5 feet 8 inches tall, 180 pounds, with brown eyes and black hair. When last seen he was wearing a black shirt and coat, blue jeans and tennis shoes.

Anyone with information about Pratt should call the Henry County Sheriff's Office, (703) 638-8751, or Lt. B.J. Carter of the Eden Police, (910) 623-9687.
