In the city of Louisville, Kentucky, the family of Charles 'Andy' Lamkin is enduring a period of uncertainty and deep concern. On March 22, 2024, the 38-year-old man was last seen in the 3000 block of Poplar Level Road. His disappearance has prompted a significant response from the Louisville Metro Police Department and a heartfelt plea from his family for any information that might lead to his safe return. Lamkin, who may be experiencing health issues and could appear disoriented, has not been in communication with his loved ones, heightening their worries for his well-being. The circumstances surrounding his disappearance are particularly troubling, as he was seen walking out of Audubon Hospital through the ambulance entrance at approximately 2:00 p.m. on the day he went missing.

Known to his friends and family as Andy, Charles Lamkin is described as a white male with red/auburn hair and brown eyes, standing at 5'10' and weighing between 160 and 165 pounds. At the time he was last seen, he had a beard. He has several distinctive tattoos, including a deer head on his right forearm, a grim reaper skull on his left shoulder, and a black hatchet on the right side of his torso. When he disappeared, he was reportedly wearing an orange Under Armour hoodie, light gray sweatpants with a UPS logo on the left leg, and cowboy boots. These details have been circulated widely in the hope that someone will recognize him and come forward with information.

The search for Lamkin has been ongoing since his disappearance. There were reported sightings of him in the days following March 22nd. On March 23rd, he was possibly seen in the 8600 block of Nation Turnpike. Further sightings were reported on March 25th and 26th near Preston Highway and Parkway Drive, leading authorities to believe he might be in the Audubon Park area. There was also speculation that he could be attempting to travel to Shepherdsville, Kentucky, on foot. His family has been actively involved in the search, putting up flyers and checking local homeless camps. The Louisville Metro Police Department continues to investigate his case, and they have urged anyone with information about his whereabouts to contact their anonymous tip line at 574-5673. The lack of communication from Lamkin is a primary source of concern for his family, who are anxious for any news. The case remains an active and open investigation, with the central focus being the effort to locate him and ensure his safety.
