Concern grew for 62-year-old David Wayne Harting of Front Royal, Virginia, after a last confirmed conversation with a friend on August 27, 2017. He had been seen driving his black 1999 Dodge Dakota pickup around town on August 25 and 26, and his brother made a final sighting of him at a local gas station on August 26. Family reported him missing to the Warren County Sheriff’s Office on September 5 after more than a week without contact.

On September 7 his Dodge Dakota was found abandoned in a remote part of southern Warren County with his wallet and other personal items inside, but no sign of David. He suffered from glaucoma in his right eye and needed medication, which added urgency to the search. Law enforcement searched the rugged terrain around the vehicle but reported no physical evidence or clues to explain his disappearance.

At the time he went missing he was described as six feet tall, 170 to 180 pounds, with graying, shoulder-length hair, a long beard (he sometimes shaved), and brown eyes. The case remains open and is classified as an endangered missing person. If anyone saw David Harting or his black 1999 Dodge Dakota in late August 2017, can you share what you know?
