Albert Charles Haft IV was 52 when he disappeared from Columbus, Ohio. He was last seen on December 12, 2014, wearing a black leather coat and dress pants. Haft had a history of mental illness and alcohol abuse and may have needed medication when he vanished.

In the days before he disappeared he was discharged from a psychiatric hospital, asked to leave a transitional living home on Seymour Avenue for violating its no-drinking rule, taken to an outpatient clinic but did not stay, and spent a night in a motel arranged by his sister and a former caseworker. He had no money or extra clothing, left a hotel restaurant without paying after ordering a meal and wine, and was found wandering downtown with minor head injuries shortly before his disappearance. From the motel room he walked away and has not been heard from since. His sister believes he may be deceased but it is also possible he is living among the homeless community. The Columbus Police Department is investigating.

If anyone knew Albert, saw him in Columbus around December 2014, or has information about his whereabouts, please share what you know.
