Ismael Beltran, 36, was last heard from on July 8, 2017, when he told his ex-wife he needed to leave town because there was no work in the area. He is described as a Hispanic male with black hair and brown eyes and may also have used the last name Pallett. That phone call is the last known contact with him.

Beltran’s disappearance is tied to that of his girlfriend, 58-year-old Robin Hughes, whose final known contact occurred the same day. Hughes borrowed her mother’s car and was seen with two unidentified men when she picked it up. On July 9th the mother found the car returned after midnight; on July 11th Hughes’s father and adult son entered her home and found the bedroom door locked from the inside. The television was on, lights off, keys in the living room, the dogs left alone and no obvious signs of a struggle, but Hughes was gone.

Both disappearances were reported to the Bowling Green Police Department and entered into the national missing persons database. The two men seen with Hughes have not been publicly identified and there have been no further public updates. If anyone knew Beltran or Hughes, saw them in Bowling Green in early July 2017, or has information about the two men who returned the car, please come forward.
