Kevin Holland, 55, was staying at a hotel in the Slidell, Louisiana area in September 2023 when he left to buy cigarettes and did not return. Later that evening he told a friend his gray Ford F-150 had broken down; that call is the last confirmed contact anyone had with him. His family has not heard from him since.

A few days after that last contact a state trooper found Holland’s truck parked on the shoulder of Highway 90 in Slidell with the hood up and the windows down. Two cell phones and Holland’s dog were inside the abandoned vehicle. Animal Control later took possession of the dog when the truck remained at the scene.

The St. Tammany Parish Sheriff’s Office is investigating and has asked the public for information. The facts available show a sudden and unexplained disappearance after a reported breakdown, with personal effects and a pet left behind. Does anyone in the Slidell area remember seeing Holland, his truck, or anything unusual on Highway 90 that night?
