Bernard Francis Mulanax, a 43-year-old Native American man, was last seen on December 26, 2009, in Manhattan, Kansas. He didn’t show up for a scheduled medical appointment that day, and his personal belongings were left behind in his apartment, prompting concern from family and friends.

Mulanax was about 6 feet tall and 230 pounds with long black hair, brown eyes and often wore a beard or goatee. His family reported ties to the Citizen Potawatomi Nation in Oklahoma. Roommates said he might have been planning a trip; there has been speculation he could have tried to travel to Topeka, Kansas, or to a Native American reservation in South Dakota, but no evidence has confirmed either theory.

The Riley County Police Department investigated and his case is listed as an endangered missing person. Does anyone have information about Bernard’s movements around late December 2009 or possible sightings after December 26?
