Jan Baginski was 65 when he disappeared from his Chicago community in the summer of 2020. The last confirmed contact with him was on July 8, 2020; after that date he missed a planned family gathering and stopped all communication, which his family says was highly out of character.

Jan was described as a Caucasian male with gray hair and blue eyes. The Chicago Police Department opened an investigation after his family reported him missing. Investigators and loved ones interviewed neighbors, friends and family, circulated flyers with his photograph and description, and used social media to expand the search, but no significant leads have emerged.

The investigation remains open and the family continues to hope for answers. If anyone has information about Jan’s whereabouts, please come forward.
