Rizwan Dhanani, 46, was last heard from late on March 31, 2016, after calling family around 11:00 p.m. to say he would work extra hours at his Auburn Dairy Queen. In the early hours of April 1 a fire at his Redmond restaurant, the Celtic Bayou, drew firefighters; a witness reported seeing a man leave the scene and investigators suspected arson. Surveillance recorded Dhanani leaving the Auburn Dairy Queen at about 2:00 a.m. Police visited his home around 5:00 a.m. to question him, and he later went to the Redmond police station to provide information. After that contact he vanished.

His vehicle was recovered locked and abandoned in the Dairy Queen parking lot with his wallet, identification, cell phone, and jacket inside, suggesting he did not plan to be away. Authorities say they do not consider him a suspect in the restaurant fire but believe he may have information about it. No communication or activity has been reported since his disappearance.

If anyone knew Rizwan, worked with him, or saw him that night, please share what was observed or any information that could help explain what happened.
