Friends and loved ones searching for him Saturday said he had no problems with drugs or the law and that he gets along well with his parents.
"He cooks for them. He does all the yard work. So, its not like he's just living there doing nothing. They had a good relationship," sister Sabri Ali.Police say they do not suspect foul play in Ali's disappearance and there were no signs he was taken from his home by force.
Tariq Ali was last seen wearing a black t-shirt, camouflage cargo pants and military-style boots. Ali is 5'8", weighs 300 lbs, has long brown hair and brown/hazel eyes. He has tattoos on both forearms.
