Aaron Cody Fortner, 25, disappeared from his camper near his family home on Fox Trace Road in Sylva, North Carolina, in the early morning hours of February 21, 2022. Family members had noticed he was acting strangely and frightened in the hours before he vanished. He reportedly made several unsettling calls to his grandparents saying he did not know where he was and that people were looking for him.

When his sister checked the camper she found it empty and in disarray, which the family says was uncharacteristic; lights and an electric blanket were left on and personal items including his wallet, keys, and phone charger remained, while his phone was missing. A neighbor’s security camera recorded a white Toyota 4Runner entering the driveway that day, though any connection to the disappearance is unknown.

More than a hundred people, including law enforcement and rescue teams, searched the area after he went missing, but investigators eventually moved from active ground searches to following leads and conducting interviews. His phone and social media have shown no activity since the disappearance.

Did anyone in the Sylva area see Aaron or the white Toyota 4Runner on February 21, 2022, or have information that could help locate him?
