Murry Alexis Foust, 22, was last seen on April 27, 2026, in Covington, Kentucky. A search is underway for a 22-year-old Northern Kentucky University student who went missing nearly a week ago, according to police.

The missing student, Murry Alexis Foust, was last seen on April 27 in the Latonia neighborhood of Covington, about nine miles south of Cincinnati, according to a statement from the Covington Police Department.

"At this time, there is no indication of foul play. We understand the family's concern and share in the worry they are experiencing during this difficult time," police officials said in the statement. Police asked the public for help in locating Foust.

"Concerns for their safety have arisen, and your input could be crucial," police said. The Covington Police Department released surveillance images of Foust, which it described as "the most recent surveillance footage we have found.

" Citing police officials, ABC affiliatein Cincinnati said the surveillance images of Foust, who's seen carrying a tan or yellow backpack and walking in the Latonia neighborhood, were taken around 6 p.m. local time on April 27. Police in Covington, Kentucky, have launched a search for Murry Alexis Foust, a 22-year-old student at Northern Kentucky University, who went missing April 27, 2026, in Covington.

"Northern Kentucky University is aware that one of our students, Murry Foust, has been reported missing. We are deeply concerned and our thoughts are with their family, friends and all those impacted," a university spokesperson said in a statement.

"The Covington Police Department is leading the investigation, and we are fully cooperating and supporting their efforts. Anyone with information is encouraged to contact Covington Police.

" Police officials said they are using multiple resources in the search for Foust, including water rescue and search teams, and drone operators. In an interview on Friday, Foust's father told WCPO that there have been unconfirmed reported sightings of Foust since the student was reported missing, including one on Friday.

However, no one has heard from Foust, the father said. Foust is fine arts major in the university's College of Arts and Sciences and is set to graduate next week, WCPO reported. Friends of Foust told WCPO that Foust was planning to go to a class at Northern Kentucky University on the afternoon Foust went missing. Friends said Foust's phone was found at the student's home and Foust's backpack was located on the university campus, according to WCPO. Copyright © 2026 ABC News Internet Ventures.
