Charles Don Claunch, 45, was last heard from on December 23, 2001, and was physically last seen at his Pauls Valley, Oklahoma, home on January 3, 2002. He is described as a white male with brown hair and brown eyes, 5 feet 5 inches tall and weighing 140 to 150 pounds. The clothing he wore when he went missing is not known.

Very few facts about the days before his disappearance have been reported. He was reported missing from his residence and never heard from again; the Pauls Valley Police Department has kept the case open but has had no publicly reported new leads. The limited information and long passage of time have left the circumstances of his disappearance unclear.

If anyone knew Charles, lived near him, or has any information about his movements in late December 2001 and early January 2002, please share what you know with the Pauls Valley Police Department.
