***Update - August 8, 2026***

The Spokane Police Department is no longer seeking assistance in locating 32-year-old Joshua Champion. We’d like to thank the public for assisting us in this matter.

***Original Release***

Joshua Champion is a 32-year-old male. He has not been seen or heard from directly by family since July 2025, and friends last saw him in April 2026. It is very uncharacteristic of Joshua to go this long without contacting family. Joshua’s vehicle, a 2010 white Ford Explorer with Washington license BDM8326, has also not been seen since that time frame.

Most of Joshua’s belongings were left at his apartment from which he was evicted earlier this year, and his phone is currently disconnected. Joshua has been known to camp in the Colville, WA and north Idaho forests; however, a more specific location is not known. Joshua is 5’11” tall, approximately 215 pounds with brown hair and green eyes. He has a gear tattoo on one of his calves and a small robin tattoo in an unknown location.

If you have any information on Joshua Champion or his vehicle, please contact Detective Erdman at cerdman@spokanepolice.org or Crime Check at 509-456-2233.
