In the summer of 2023, a 25-year-old man named Tyler Thomas Ashby from Candler, North Carolina, vanished, leaving his family searching for answers. On July 13, 2023, Tyler spoke with his father, assuring him he would be home the following day. This phone call was the last time his family heard from him. He was last physically seen on that same day, leaving a hotel in the Candler area of Asheville. At the time of his disappearance, Tyler was described as being 5'11' and weighing 165 pounds, with brown hair and green eyes.

The day before his last known contact, on July 12, 2023, Tyler was seen leaving his home. His family grew concerned when he did not return as promised and had no further communication with them. Reports indicate that when he was last seen, he was wearing black sweatpants and a shirt. The days turned into weeks, and with no word from Tyler, his family reported him missing to the Buncombe County Sheriff's Office on July 19, 2023. An investigation into his disappearance was launched, but information regarding his whereabouts has been scarce.

The Buncombe County Sheriff's Office has continued to seek public assistance in the search for Tyler. Despite their efforts and the pleas from his family, no significant leads have emerged to explain his sudden disappearance. The lack of any trace of his movements or communication since that July day has been a source of growing concern for his loved ones and investigators. The case remains an active and open investigation, with many questions still unanswered as the search for Tyler Ashby continues.
