Longtime Major Leaguer Otis Nixon was expected at a suburban Atlanta golf course Saturday morning.
According to police…he never showed up.

Nixon’s girlfriend reported the former outfielder missing Sunday afternoon. Even though there’s no evidence of foul play, it’s hard not to remember Nixon’s past run-ins with the law. In 2013, the 17-year big league veteran was charged with possession of cocaine and possession of a drug-related object.
During his career, which included stints, most notably, with the Montreal Expos and Atlanta Braves, Nixon hit .270 with 620 stolen bases. Fun fact…he stole more bases than any player that had never appeared in an All-Star game.
***UPDATE***
After being missing more than two days…Nixon has been found.
UPDATE: Otis Nixon has been located and is safe. We appreciate the assistance from the public and media.
