Dustin Ali
Dustin Ali, 48, disappeared from the 1500 block of South 55th Street in Southwest Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on December 21, 2025.
Surveillance footage captured him inside a corner store at 3:59 PM, marking his last confirmed sighting.
Earlier that day, Dustin participated in a religious service via Zoom.
His phone remained active for several days afterward, with its final ping occurring on December 24 in the Cobbs Creek area before it was shut off. He never returned home and has not been seen since.
His family reported him missing on December 23 after going to his residence and finding the door unlocked. Inside, everything appeared normal. His coat, keys, wallet, ID, clothing, shoes, and dog were all still there — only his cellphone was missing.
Loved ones say it is entirely unlike him to go even one day without speaking to family.
Dustin is deeply involved in his community. He runs his own contracting business, Ali’s General Labor, and is an active member of his mosque. He also goes by Rahman Dustin Ali. He is known for marathon running, ministering, and advocating for those in need.
Police say there is currently no evidence of foul play, though nothing has been ruled out.
Dustin is a Black male with black hair and brown eyes. He is 5’5″–5’8″ and weighs between 160–180 pounds. His tattoos include “RUN CLUB 1934 SAFA & MARWA” on his left shoulder, a skull and symbols on his chest, and additional tattoos on his forearms.
He may have been wearing a blue jacket and blue jeans. A $10,000 reward is being offered for information leading to his location
