Michael Paul Kiker, 41, was last seen in Monroe, North Carolina, on March 7, 2023. He is described as a white male, brown hair, brown eyes, about 5 feet 7 inches and 160 pounds. The Monroe Police Department is handling the investigation.

A Silver Alert was issued for Michael, indicating concern he might be endangered due to a cognitive impairment; the alert was later canceled but officials have not publicly explained the reason for the cancellation. His disappearance was not reported to police until September 25, 2023, several months after he was last seen. Searches and public appeals were conducted but no significant breakthroughs have been publicly announced, and some have raised the possibility of foul play.

If anyone saw Michael after March 7, 2023, or has information about where he might have gone, please contact the Monroe Police Department.
