Brandon Stott Missing Person: We are heartbroken, scared, and desperate for help. Brandon Stott, a deeply loved member of our community, has been officially declared missing. Brandon was last seen around 7 PM on Tuesday evening, April 8th. Since then, there has been no contact, no activity, and no sign of where he might be. Brandon is well-known in Anoka — not just as the favorite bartender at 201 Tavern, but as a veteran, a friend, a brother, and a part of our chosen family. He is someone who always shows up for others — and now we need to show up for him.
Last Seen: Approximately 7:00 PM on Tuesday, April 8, 2025 Home Check: A welfare check was conducted Wednesday morning. His shoes were at the house, suggesting he may have returned home that evening — but there’s no other sign of him after that. Phone: Brandon’s phone has been off since Tuesday night. Vehicle: He does not own a vehicle. He walks or gets rides. Work: Brandon did not show up for his shift on Wednesday, April 10 — this is completely out of character. No Social Media: He does not use social media regularly, which makes it harder to track any recent activity or communication. Mental Health: His loved ones have expressed serious concern about his mental health recently. He was not in a good place, and we are deeply worried for his safety and wellbeing.
Brandon wouldn’t just disappear. If you know him, you know that. He’s reliable, hard-working, and the kind of guy who makes people feel seen and welcomed. That’s why this is so disturbing — because it is absolutely not like him to vanish without a trace, without letting someone know what’s going on. If you live or work in or near Anoka, especially around Main Street, Ferry Street, or near the river, PLEASE check any home or business security footage from Tuesday night through now. Look for anyone matching Brandon’s description, or any suspicious or unusual activity. Even the smallest detail could help.
We need volunteers who can help search the Anoka area, especially near the river, trails, parks, and places he might go to be alone. If you’re local and have some time — even 30 minutes — please reach out and lend a hand. Every set of eyes makes a difference. We need this post shared far and wide — share it in every group, page, and platform you’re a part of. If someone saw something — even if they don’t realize it yet — they might come forward once they know he’s missing. If you saw Brandon after 7 PM on Tuesday or know anything that could help locate him — please contact local authorities immediately. You can also message or call us privately. No tip is too small. Even something that doesn’t seem important could be the missing piece.

Last Seen: Around 7 PM, Tuesday, April 8th. Location: Anoka, MN – possibly walking distance from 201 Taver Brandon isn’t just “missing” — he’s in danger, and time matters. The longer he’s gone, the more urgent this becomes. His absence isn’t just noticed — it’s felt.
