Roy Victor Banhart, 38, was last seen in Ketchikan, Alaska, on December 29, 2014. He took a taxi to the 49er Bar on Water Street and was seen leaving the bar by a cousin. His cellphone was last used that same day. Reports indicate he intended to take a taxi home but was reportedly intoxicated and confrontational, and the taxi driver asked him to exit the vehicle; that is the last confirmed sighting.

His vehicle was later found impounded and never claimed. Authorities say there is no sign he left the island by ferry or plane, and there has been no activity on his bank accounts or credit cards since December 29. Investigators have considered the possibility he accidentally fell into the surrounding frigid waters, while family members have heard unsubstantiated rumors of foul play; police have said they have no evidence supporting those rumors. A jury in Ketchikan later reached a presumption that Roy Banhart is deceased, but questions about what happened remain.

If anyone in Ketchikan at the end of December 2014 remembers seeing Roy, his car, or a taxi dropping someone off, please share information with the Ketchikan Police Department.
