Nathan Jonah Lerner, 30, was last seen in Carbonado, Washington, on January 6, 2021, after leaving a Bonney Lake residence where he had been staying with a family friend. He had sought treatment earlier that day at MultiCare Auburn Medical Center for a painful infection, was given a painkiller and discharged, then contacted by the hospital to return after some biometric results were found to be dangerously abnormal; he never came back and was not heard from again.

On January 8, 2021, Nathan’s vehicle was found abandoned about half a mile south of the Fairfax Bridge in Carbonado with the keys reportedly still in the ignition. Searches of the bridge area and the river were conducted but produced no sign of him; unusually heavy rains that month left the river running high and fast. Authorities have said he may have jumped from the bridge, but his remains have not been recovered.

If anyone who was in the Carbonado or Bonney Lake area in early January 2021 saw Nathan, his car, or anything unusual near the Fairfax Bridge, please share information that might help his family.
