Chrisian L. Keener, 36, was last seen in Marseilles, Illinois, in the early morning of January 17, 2026. A Marseilles police officer saw him about 12:50 AM standing on the Illinois River bridge; he then fell from the bridge into the river. He was wearing blue jeans, a black winter coat, and brown boots when he disappeared.

Searches of the Illinois River were conducted in the days and weeks afterward but turned up no remains, and investigators believe the current may have carried his body downstream. Keener is described as a White male, 6 feet 7 inches tall, about 175 pounds, with short straight brown hair and hazel eyes. Distinguishing marks include a shamrock tattoo on his right forearm, a moon with stars tattoo on his left shoulder, and a partially amputated left pinky finger at the middle knuckle.

His wife, Stacy Bridges, later spoke to the Marseilles City Council, saying she thought Kratom may have influenced his actions and urging consideration of a ban on the substance. The family remains without closure. If anyone saw Chrisian on January 17 or has information about his movements that night, please come forward.
