GWINNETT COUNTY, Ga. -- A college student has been reported missing when he did not come home after going out to Wild Bill's in Gwinnett County.

Officials said they have started an investigation into the case of an 18-year-old missing since Thursday night. Gwinnett County authorities said Justin Gaines' mother filed a police report Sunday after he didn't return home.

According to the police report, Gaine's mother, Erika Wilson, said that her son came home Thursday and told her he was going out with friends. He was dropped off at Wild Bill's that night. Later that evening, Gaines called a friend to pick him up but the friend told him he couldn't. Gaines has not been seen or heard from since.

"Very frightening. We have seven kids and this is our worst nightmare," said Wilson.

Wilson said she has contacted her son's friends, local hospitals and jails and has not been able to locate her child.

"The community's been great but we haven't had any leads for his whereabouts, what could have happened, if he left with someone and he hasn't called anyone and that's not like him," said Wilson. Gaines is a student at Gainesville State College and his family said he is responsible and usually calls home.

Friends of Gaines said he had fake IDs in the name of Brad Allen and Brad Shewe. He is 5'11" and 210 lbs with a muscular build. He has blue eyes and brown hair with a short buzz cut. He has both his ears pierced with diamond studs and was last seen wearing a long sleeve gray shirt with "Abercrombie" written on the front.

Officials said they are attempting to track Gaines' cell phone to obtain information. Anyone with information on his whereabouts is asked to call the Gwinnett County Police Department at 770-513-5300.
