Who is Séamus Gray and when did he go missing?

21-YEAR-OLD Navy sailor, Séamus Gray, was stationed at the Great Lakes Naval Base in the greater Chicago area before he went missing in March 2023.

He never returned from a night out, and now his family and the police are asking for the public's help in finding him.

Who is Séamus Gray?

Séamus Gray, 21, is from Jupiter, Florida.

He is a US Navy Fireman Recruit assigned to the station's Surface Warfare Engineering School Command.

According to NBC 5, Séamus' mother, Kerry Rodier Gray, spoke about him at a press conference on March 23, 2023, saying he lives for "his family, God and his country."

She added that before his disappearance, she and Seamus would normally speak "no less than 10 times a day."

When did Séamus Gray go missing?

Séamus Gray failed to return by curfew after going out with friends for drinks on St. Patrick's Day, March 17, 2023.

He was reportedly last seen leaving the Ibiza Bar in Waukegan, Illinois.

Navy officers, the local police and firefighters, and the Coast Guard have been diligently searching for the Navy recruit but have come up empty.

The Chicago Police Department released a surveillance camera video on March 23, to raise awareness of his disappearance.

In the footage, he can be seen wearing a red pullover.

Do police have any leads on where Séamus could be?

The last video of Séamus showed him walking just feet away from the water in Waukegan Harbor.

Police Deputy Chief Brian Mullen said that their efforts on Friday would be focused on the water, as well as around and on the Naval base.

Kerry Gray spoke to CBS, telling them that there is video footage of someone trying to "pickpocket her son" on the night that he was out, which led to an altercation with a group of people.

The manager at the bar Seamus was at that night corroborated this story.

Mullen stated: "We're aware of the video outside of the bar - and our investigators are working with NCIS to help identify people who might be on that video."
