Seth Thomas Svabik, 31, was last seen in the Liberty Township area of Youngstown, Ohio, on January 9, 2019. He had been living at a sober living facility in Niles but was asked to leave after a relapse. Around 8:30 p.m. the night he disappeared, he tried to rent a room at the Motel 6 on Belmont Avenue; motel staff described his demeanor as paranoid and denied him a room, asking him to leave. The next day his personal belongings were found across the street from the motel.

Seth is 6 feet 2 inches, 140 to 150 pounds, with brown hair, blue eyes, multiple tattoos (including a gun on his stomach, a heart with wings, a star and the word Family on his arms), a chest scar, a goatee at the time, and tongue and lower lip piercings. He struggled with drug abuse but ordinarily kept in touch with family, which makes his silence since January 9 out of character. His family has offered a $5,000 reward and Liberty Township Police continue to ask anyone with information to come forward.

Did anyone in the Liberty Township or Belmont Avenue area see Seth on the night of January 9, 2019, or know why his belongings were left across the street from the motel?
