CHARLOTTE, N.C. - "For over a year, the McNeil family has had to deal with the enormous worry of wondering what happened to Tra'sond," said ATF Special Agent in Charge Alicia Jones. "Our hope is that we help bring in new information and new leads that can answer that question for them and find those responsible for his disappearance."
Surveillance footage captured twelve months ago showed Mr. McNeil being forcibly pulled into a blue Kia sedan by a group of unknown individuals. The incident occurred near the 600 block of Sherard Court.
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives has announced a reward of up to $5,000 for information on Tra'sond Marquail McNeil, a missing Goldsboro man last seen on Nov. 8, 2025.
ATF is working with the Goldsboro Police Department on this ongoing investigation. Anyone with information about Mr. McNeil should contact ATF at 1-888-ATF-TIPS (888-283-8477). Information can also be sent to [email protected], or through ATF's website at www.atf.gov/contact/atf-tips. All tips will remain anonymous.
