A missing person is a person who has disappeared and whose status as alive or dead cannot be confirmed as their location and condition are unknown. A person may go missing through a voluntary disappearance, or else due to an accident, crime, death in a location where they cannot be found (such as at sea), or many other reasons. In most parts of the world, a missing person will usually be found quickly. While criminal abductions are some of the most widely reported missing person cases, these account for only 2 to 5 percent of missing children in Europe. By contrast, some missing person cases remain unresolved for many years. Laws related to these cases are often complex since, in many jurisdictions, relatives and third parties may not deal with a person's assets until their death is considered proven by law and a formal death certificate issued. The situation, uncertainties, and lack of closure or a funeral resulting when a person goes missing may be extremely painful with long-lasting effects on family and friends. A number of organizations seek to connect, share best practices, and disseminate information and images of missing children to improve the effectiveness of missing children investigations, including the International Commission on Missing Persons, the International Centre for Missing & Exploited Children (ICMEC), as well as national organizations, including the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children in the US, Missing People in the UK, Child Focus in Belgium, and The Smile of the Child in Greece.

According to current statistics, 4,000 people in the United States go missing every day. Sometimes a child suddenly vanishes from the bus stop or the local park or even from their own yard or bedroom. Or a teenager doesn�t return home after a walk to the neighborhood grocery store or a bike ride or a party with friends. Other times, an adult is mysteriously absent from their job or neighbors haven�t seen them for several days, and family and friends haven�t heard from them either.

Associated Vehicle(s) Teal and white low-rider Harley Davidson motorcycle (accounted for)
Markings and/or Distinguishing Characteristics Caucasian male. Brown hair, blue eyes. Kallenberger has a tattoo of a dragon on his left forearm, a tattoo of a rose on his left upper arm, and another dragon tattoo on his right forearm. He has a tattoo of the name "Valerie" in black Old English script on the side of his chest above his nipple, a tattoo of a skull with a demon's face and red and yellow flames on the back of his neck, and a tattoo of flames that wraps around the side of his neck. Photos of some of his tattoos are posted with this summary. His head was shaved at the time of his disappearance, and his left eyebrow and left ear are pierced. Kallenberger has extensive scarring on his left leg and left side due to motorcycle accidents.
Details of Disappearance Kallenberger was last seen in Franklin, Indiana on March 15, 2016. He lived in the 1900 block of north 15th Street in Lafayette, Indiana. He left Lafayette on March 15 and was riding his motorcycle to Florida to visit his sister, Kimberly J. Hanson. The last contact Kallenberger had with anyone was at 3:20 p.m. that day, when a state trooper saw him at Interstate 65 near the 86 mile marker in Johnson County, Indiana.
Kallenberger's teal and white low-rider Harley Davidson motorcycle had broken down and the trooper asked if he needed help, but Kallenberger said help was already on the way. He had called Hanson in Florida and asked her to call a friend in Lafayette to come and get him. The trooper left. When police returned to the area a few hours later, they saw Kallenberger's motorcycle was still there on the roadside but he was gone. They had it towed.
Kallenberger never arrived in Florida and has never been heard from again. His wife and Hanson reported him missing on March 28, thirteen days after he was last seen.
Hanson doesn't believe Kallenberger would have left his expensive motorcycle unattended on the interstate. The last voice mail he left for her was strange: he said didn't know what was going on but he was being set up, said something about having a gun and killing himself, said there was a truck backing up, and then said, "Oh, my God. Kim, I'll have to call you back."
Hanson doesn't believe Kallenberger actually owned a real gun at the time of his disappearance, although he did have a realistic-looking BB gun.
The circumstances of Kallenberger's disappearance are unclear, but his family fears he came to harm. His remains unsolved.
