MPD sent out a City Watch alert for the 25-year-old on Monday.

According to Fox 13, the UM student called his mom the day he went missing and told her he was going to a party. The friend told investigators that about 15 minutes after arriving at her house, Wilson got a call and left her home. When she looked outside, Wilson was nowhere to be seen.

The friend called his mom and informed her son was missing. The friend attempted to use the Find My iPhone to find him, but nothing came up.

Authorities discovered a burning car a few yards from Wilson’s body. It’s unclear if the vehicle belonged to Wilson or a possible suspect.
