On a June afternoon in 2015, a 26-year-old man named Marcus Dean Wise told his father he was taking his dog for a walk in Hermiston, Oregon. He was last seen on June 18, 2015, reportedly in the Riverfront Park area. Later that day, a confusing turn of events unfolded when his large, reddish-brown mixed-breed dog was found wandering alone on the west side of town. There was no sign of Marcus, and he has not been seen or heard from since. The discovery of his dog without him was immediately concerning to his family, who described it as out of character for him to abandon his pet. In the days and weeks that followed, Marcus's family and friends grew increasingly worried. The situation became more painful when his birthday passed without any contact from him. He had left his phone at home, leaving no way for loved ones to reach him or for investigators to track his movements. His family was left completely bewildered by his sudden and unexplained disappearance. In an effort to find him, they printed and distributed flyers throughout Umatilla County, the Tri-Cities, and at rest stops along the way to Portland. The flyers described him as last seen wearing a red tank top and shorts. The Hermiston Police Department opened a missing persons investigation, but the case has been met with few leads. While there was a reported sighting of Marcus with his dog at Riverfront Park on the day he disappeared, this did not lead to any significant breakthroughs in the investigation. The circumstances of his disappearance remain unknown, and years later, his case is still open with few details available. His family has expressed their deep concern and fear that something terrible may have happened, all while holding out hope for his safe return. The investigation into what happened to Marcus Wise remains ongoing.
