Man With Amnesia Missing For Second Time

DULUTH, Minn. (WCCO) -- For the second time in the last three years, a man who suffers from amnesia is missing.

The family of 26-year-old Scott Tridgell of Duluth said he left a note on Sunday saying he was headed to a job interview. His family hasn't heard from him since.

Tridgell last disappeared in 2007 from his then-home in Edina. Police found him three weeks later after someone recognized his truck from news reports. Tridgell was at a Wisconsin rest stop about 60 miles from home.

His family said Tridgell suffers from a rare case of amnesia which they attribute to a series of concussions he received. They said he hasn't suffered an amnesiac episode since 2007.

Tridgell is reportedly driving the same black Toyota Tacoma pickup truck which is severely hail damaged from the last time he disappeared. The license plate number is 672-DTY.

Tridgell is described as 5 feet, 10 inches tall, weighing 145 pounds with blue eyes and blonde hair.

Anyone with information or anyone who has seen Tridgell is asked to contact the Duluth Police Department.
