Sheriff's deputies Monday issued a request for the public's help in finding a 21-year-old man who was last seen overnight Wednesday and whose disappearance they said was suspicious.

Jeffreys was described as black, 6-foot-1, 160 pounds, with black hair in dreadlocks or braids, a moustache and a goatee. He was last seen wearing a white shirt, gray pants and red-and-black shoes, deputies said.

They did not disclose details, but said "the circumstances surrounding his disappearance are suspicious."
