Missing Montgomery man found dead from gunshot wound, police say

Montgomery police said 28-year-old Tyrent Williams, who had recently been reported missing, was found dead from a gunshot wound after officers responded to a person-down call in the 200 block of Ann Street. Officers were called around 12:35 p.m. on June 21, 2026, and Williams was pronounced dead at the scene.

The case moved quickly from a missing-person report to a homicide investigation, leaving detectives to piece together Williams’ final hours. Police have not released a suspect or a motive, and the early investigation has centered on when Williams was last seen alive and whether the missing-person report and the shooting death are connected in time and place.

Williams’ death was Montgomery’s 24th murder of 2026, adding another violent death to a city already tracking a rising homicide toll by late June. For investigators, the immediate task is not only identifying who shot Williams, but also mapping the gap between the point when he was reported missing and the moment officers found him on Ann Street.

That gap is now the center of the case. Williams was reported missing, then found dead by gunfire in downtown Montgomery, and the unanswered questions are the ones detectives still have to close before the investigation can move forward.
