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.

Glasford, Illinois
Missing Classification Endangered Missing
Sex Male
Race
White
Age 60 years old
Height and Weight 6'0 - 6'1, 230 - 240 pounds

Medical Conditions Bohanan needs a cane to walk; he cannot walk more than about ten feet unaided, and if he falls down he needs help getting up.
Markings and/or Distinguishing Characteristics Caucasian male. Gray hair, brown eyes. Bohanan is bald. He had a long gray beard at the time of his disappearance. He has scars on the right side of his torso from a buckshot wound; some of the buckshot is still embedded in his body. Several of his teeth are missing.
Details of Disappearance Bohanan was last seen at his residence on Glasford Road in Glasford, Illinois on April 26, 2017. He called his nephew and asked him to come over and pick him up so he could cash a check and go to lunch. His nephew arrived before 12:00 p.m., about twenty minutes after the call, but Bohanan was gone.
On the day he disappeared, Bohanan was supposed to have dinner with a friend. He and his friend had been texting that morning, but Bohanan stopped replying. His friend went to the house with food at dinnertime and he wasn't there, so he left the food there and went away. After his disappearance was discovered, the food Bohanan's friend left was found untouched at the house.
Bohanan had been behaving normally prior to his disappearance. As he needs a cane to walk and he has no vehicle of his own, it's possible he left the house with somebody in their car. He has never been heard from again. Bohanan is considered missing under suspicious circumstances. His remains unsolved.
