Shawn Adam Pontious, 41, was last seen in Soldotna, Alaska on January 29, 2013. He is described as six feet tall, about 200 pounds, with red or auburn hair, blue eyes and a braided beard, and has tattoos on his left forearm, left wrist and right shoulder. At the time he was last seen he was wearing blue jeans and a denim jacket.

The disappearance was reported to the Alaska State Troopers on February 10, 2013, and the Troopers’ Anchorage office took the lead. Details about what happened on January 29 are scarce and investigators have had a limited trail to follow. His profile is listed in national missing persons databases and the case remains open and unresolved.

If anyone in the Soldotna area remembers seeing Shawn around late January 2013 or has information that could help, please come forward.
