In early 2013, a fifty-year-old man named Timothy Todd Pohlgeers vanished from his residence in Burlington, Kentucky, leaving behind a life that, to some, seemed to be in a state of transition. Known to his friends and family as Tim, he was a man with blondish-strawberry hair worn short, and striking blue eyes. At the time of his disappearance, he stood between five feet nine inches and six feet tall and weighed between 160 and 190 pounds.
His last known contact with anyone was on January 29, 2013. On that day, the chapter of his life in Kentucky seemed to close, and what was to come next remains an unanswered question.
The circumstances leading up to Pohlgeers's disappearance provide a few clues but no definitive answers. He had been residing in the Boone County area for more than a year and was unemployed during that time. He had previously lived for a number of years in Las Vegas, Nevada, and he informed others that he was heading back there for a job opportunity. This planned journey appeared to be a decisive move to start a new phase in his life. It is believed that he did begin his travels, as there is information suggesting he sold his car on Craigslist after he arrived in Arizona, a state on the way to his final destination of Las Vegas. After that point, however, the trail seems to grow cold, and his expected arrival in Nevada never appeared to happen.
When he was last seen, Timothy Pohlgeers was described as being clean-shaven. He was dressed casually in blue jeans, a blue Ralph Lauren zip-up fleece, and white Brooks athletic shoes. The investigation into his whereabouts is being handled by the Florence Police Department. The overview of this case is one of a man who seemingly chose to relocate for work, a common occurrence for many. He left Burlington with a stated destination and purpose, but his journey appears to have ended somewhere between Arizona and Las Vegas. What happened to Timothy Pohlgeers after he sold his vehicle is unknown, and with no further contact, his case became that of a missing person.Last Seen: Jan 29, 2013
