TYLER, Texas — Seven weeks missing and there's still little to no answers for the family of Harley Morris. The 29-year-old was last seen leaving a bar on the northside of Tyler.
He was wearing a Prime 102 hat, black shoes with a black and gray hoodie.
Big Sandy's Circle M Crawfish is offering a $10,000 reward for any information on Morris' whereabouts. Owner Ed Williams met Morris' mom in a unique way. He was contacted by a friend in Florida who also happened to know Harley’s mother.
"We have a mutual friend in Tampa, Florida who had reached out to me who knew me and knew where I was at," Williams said.
Since then, Williams has helped Morris' mother find a place to live as she moves to East Texas to search for her son.
"She was trying to get to $2,500 and I said ‘well, $2,500 isn’t going to be enough motivation.’ So I put up a $10,000 reward because that’s enough motivation for somebody to rat out their friends or tell anybody," Williams said.
It’s a gesture Williams hopes will bring light to new information.
"She’s been in dangerous situations just passing out flyers and asking if anybody’s heard from him or seen him," Williams said.
Video surveillance shows Morris leaving a local bar, walking across the parking towards Grand Ave. in the early morning hours of Jan. 21.
"I can only imagine what she’s going through, I’ve got a child of my own," Williams said.
Next week will mark two months since Morris was last seen. The Tyler Police Department said they have no new leads in the search.
"When people are in that situation with no friends, no family here, it’s the right thing to do," Williams said.
For now, the search for the 29-year-old continues as posters and signs continue to remind residents about Morris.
Crime Stoppers is also offering a $1,000 reward for any information regarding Harley Morris’ whereabouts. This reward is different from the one Circle M Crawfish is offering. The Morris family is also offering another $5,000 reward.
