Ian Shotton Missing Person Case

In St. Louis, Missouri, a now 37-year-old man named Ian Mathew Shotton vanished, leaving his loved ones in a state of confusion and distress. On May 19, 2022, the 33-year-old's mother received a text message from him which stated that she should not be concerned if she did not hear from him, as he was going to be working at a dog food factory in Chicago, Illinois. This was the last time anyone is known to have heard from Ian. This communication was unusual because he typically kept in daily contact with his mother. His phone has not been used since.

Ian is a white male with blond hair and blue eyes. At the time of his disappearance, he was 6'0' and weighed 185 pounds. He has a scar on his right wrist and another on his left leg. He has numerous tattoos, including a distinctive puzzle piece on the back of his neck, a purple Grim Reaper on his shoulder, and his daughter's name on his chest. He also has tattoos on both arms and on the backs and sides of both hands, one of which says 'Jesus' and the other 'Wept'. He may have a goatee and it has been noted that he may be using the last name Simmons.

The investigation into Ian's disappearance has been challenging for law enforcement. Authorities have been unable to confirm his employment at the dog food factory in Chicago. There have been suggestions that he may be in Auburn or Fort Wayne, Indiana, but these leads have not been substantiated. The fact that he was known to use an alias has added another layer of complexity to the search. It is uncharacteristic of Ian to cease contact with his family, particularly his mother, with whom he shared a close relationship. His case remains an active missing person investigation, and his loved ones are still seeking answers.
