Police Seek Information on the Whereabouts of Derek Payne
The Veridion Police Department (VPD) has issued a city-wide alert for information on the whereabouts of Derek Payne, an elusive figure with alleged ties to several high-profile criminal networks.
Payne, described as a dangerous and calculating individual, was last seen in the Neon Quarters two weeks ago. Surveillance footage shows him entering a high-end club but leaving through an undocumented exit, disappearing without a trace.
Chief Investigator Lydia Cross stated, “Derek Payne is a key figure in several ongoing investigations. Any information on his movements could prove vital to restoring order in Veridion.”
Payne’s name has long been whispered in Veridion’s underworld, but his sudden disappearance has raised questions. Is he lying low—or planning his next move?
Anonymous tips can be submitted via the VPD’s secure channel.
