Grady Memorial Hospital officials don’t have much information about a man who arrived in their trauma center May 21.

The patient arrived about 4 p.m., but officials aren’t sure if someone called police or dropped the man off at the hospital.

Running his fingerprints through a state database didn’t help identify the man, either.

But “John Doe” is in critical condition and Grady hopes to find his family.

He is described as African-American, weighs 275 pounds and is approximately 6 feet tall. He has a beard, but does not have any tattoos or other distinguishing marks.

If you have information about this patient, contact Grady Hospital Social Services at 404-616-5331.
