Sean Charles Lee Luberger was 50 when he disappeared after a trip from his Willoughby home to visit a friend in the Akron area. He drove south on June 26, 2021, and was last seen June 28 after leaving the friend’s home in Barberton, reportedly to return to Willoughby. That afternoon the friend received a FaceTime call from Sean; he said he was at a rest stop and asked to come back, but he never arrived.

Cell phone data matched the friend’s account, with Sean’s phone pinging a tower in Bath Township near a rest area on a likely route north. His family reported the silence as uncharacteristic, and a missing person report was filed with the Willoughby Police Department. Nearly a month passed with no new leads until Sean’s maroon Chevy Tracker was found abandoned in the Barberton area on July 24, 2021 — not along the expected route home. The vehicle’s discovery did not produce Sean.

If anyone saw Sean, his Tracker, or his phone around Bath Township, Barberton, or the rest stop on June 28, 2021, please come forward with information.
