Robert D. Flanagan, 38, was last seen in Colonia, New Jersey, on January 14, 1998. He was described as a white male, 5 feet 11 inches tall, about 250 pounds, with brown hair, hazel eyes, a mole on his right cheek, several scars on his forearms and a tattoo reading DAN on his left forearm. On the day he disappeared he wore a navy blue New York Yankees baseball cap, a black sweatshirt, black sweatpants, white socks and black Nike sneakers; he also wore reading glasses and had a black wallet.

The National Missing and Unidentified Persons System provides the physical description and clothing but offers little about the circumstances of his disappearance.
