Ian Solheim, 31, a teacher at Woodrow Wilson High School, has been missing since July 25, 2021. He was last seen at about 8:00 p.m. in the 1300 block of East Capitol Street SE in Washington, D.C. Solheim is described as a white male, 6 feet 3 inches tall, about 165 pounds, with light brown hair and hazel eyes. Witness descriptions differ on clothing; he was reported wearing a pink button-down shirt, khaki shorts and black shoes, and some reports say he was seen in a white shirt and shorts.

On the day he disappeared Solheim contacted his mother and said he was experiencing a mental health crisis and needed help; his father later said he had been struggling with depression and isolation related to the COVID-19 pandemic. When his mother went to check on him he was already gone. The Metropolitan Police Department was notified on July 28, 2021, and authorities indicated he might be in need of medication. Friends, family and the school community organized searches and distributed flyers; Woodrow Wilson High School offered counseling to students and staff.

There have been no significant leads and his disappearance remains unsolved. Did anyone in the D.C. area see Ian in late July 2021 or have information about his movements that week?
