Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP15057) and 2 other sources
In the early morning hours of August 22, 2008, 41-year-old Johnny Kincaid was last seen in Kansas City, Missouri. He had driven his wife to her job, located in the 3400 block of Broadway, and was seen at approximately 6:30 a.m. Johnny, a white male with brown hair and blue eyes, stood at 5'11' and had a number of distinguishing tattoos and scars. He and his wife had plans to travel out of town the following day to visit family. A week after he was last seen, the minivan he had been driving was discovered abandoned behind a fire station at 12th Street and Indiana Avenue. The vehicle had a broken window and a flat tire.

Johnny's family feared from the beginning that he had met with foul play. The circumstances surrounding his disappearance were immediately concerning to them. His wife reported that the minivan had very little gas, and she had given him five dollars for fuel before he left. At 7:01 a.m. on the morning he disappeared, a call was made from Johnny's cell phone to his brother, though it is not known if they spoke. Johnny was then supposed to pick his wife up from her job later that day, but he never arrived. His absence was entirely out of character, especially given their upcoming travel plans.

The discovery of his abandoned and damaged vehicle a week later only deepened the mystery and the sense of dread for his loved ones. Despite the passage of time, very few details have emerged to shed light on what might have happened to Johnny Kincaid. His case remains an open and troubling puzzle for law enforcement and his family, who are left to wonder about the fate of a man who vanished after a seemingly ordinary morning. The lack of any significant leads or evidence has left his disappearance shrouded in uncertainty, and the fear that he was a victim of a crime persists.
