On September 8, 2015, at 4:32 p.m., Charleston County Sheriff’s Office deputies responded to 5639 Heyward Smalls Road in Hollywood to investigate a report of a missing person.  According to relatives of Nathaniel Anderson, he was last seen by his family on September 6, 2015, and it was also reported to the Sheriff’s Office that Nathaniel suffers from Asthma and requires medication.  Nathaniel resides and was reported missing from 5741 Parkers Ferry Road, Adams Run, SC.

Through our detectives’ investigation, it was discovered that the vehicle, a 2003 blue Chevrolet Monte Carlo, Nathaniel Anderson drives was found abandoned and burnt in the woods near Grace Lane and Hwy 78 on September 7, 2015 by the Dorchester County Sheriff’s Office.

Currently, our detectives are actively working in concert with detectives from the Dorchester County Sheriff’s Office, and the Berkeley County Sheriff’s Office in locating Nathaniel Anderson.  At this stage of the investigation, we can’t rule out foul play as being involved in his disappearance.  Nathaniel Anderson a/k/a “Punchy or Punch” is described as a B/M, 5’04”, 140lbs., with black hair and brown eyes.
