Brandon Patrick Declared Missing After Allegedly Biting Off Girlfriend Katrisa Cryer’s Face

The Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff’s Office is asking the public to be on the lookout for Brandon Patrick, 31, who is wanted in connection with a shocking domestic violence incident.

Authorities say Patrick is accused of biting off a portion of his girlfriend Katrisa Cryer’s face during a domestic dispute that occurred on Tuesday, January 27. The investigation revealed that the altercation began over the weekend and that Cryer had been held against her will for several days before the attack. She is currently hospitalized and undergoing treatment for her extensive injuries.

Patrick is wanted on charges of Domestic Abuse Battery with Serious Bodily Injury and False Imprisonment, with authorities warning that additional or elevated charges may be filed as the investigation continues.

The sheriff’s office described Patrick as a convicted felon with known gang affiliations and cautioned that he should be considered armed and dangerous. Officials noted that he currently does not have a vehicle and may attempt to solicit rides from strangers.

Patrick is an identical twin, but deputies said he can be identified by several distinguishing features:

• An old stab wound on his right hand

• A half-sleeve tattoo of a house and scroll on his left arm

• A full sleeve tattoo on his right arm

The Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff’s Office is urging anyone with information about Patrick’s whereabouts to contact authorities immediately.
