What is going on true crime fans? I'm your host Teeth and I'm your host

Daphne and you're listening to Going West. Hello everybody hope you had a great holiday weekend. Big thank you to Heather, Shannon, and Kayla for recommending today's case. We have a very bizarre young man's disappearance case out of North Carolina for you guys today.

Very, very reminiscent of a lot of cases that we've talked about thus far on this show.

So yeah, stay tuned because it is really really wild how these cases just feel

so similar I know we're gonna talk about that later actually because it drives me

insane as well.

But yeah, this one has some really interesting unique elements to it and I cannot wait to hear what you

guys think.

So thank you for tuning in and let's talk about it. All right guys this is episode 360 of going west so let's get into it. Oh, you know, you're going to be more.

Oh, oh, you know. Oh, you're not. You're going to. In November of 2007, a 24-year-old man went missing after attending a popular comedy show with family and friends in Charlotte, North Carolina.

After security camera footage picked him up leaving a bar and grabbing a slice of pizza alone,

he seemed to vanish and was never seen again. So what really happened to him that night and why?

This is the story of Kyle Fleischman. Oh, Kyle Fleischman was born on September 24th, 1983 to parents Barbara and Dick Fleischman.

The first born, he was later joined by a sister named Noel and a brother named Kurt.

When Kyle was in high school, the family moved to Charlotte, North Carolina, where his dad had landed a new job working for fidelity investments.

After attending Charlotte Catholic High School and graduating in 2002, Kyle headed to Elon University in Elon North Carolina, which is about an hour and 45 minutes northeast of Charlotte.

Majoring in business administration, he graduated with a bachelor's degree in 2006,

and after graduation, Kyle moved back to Charlotte to be closer to his family and moved into an apartment

in the south of the city. And there Kyle started working a job for a health care

recruiting agency.

Kaya was described as warm and trusting and his dad Dick remembers him as a social

butterfly, saying that he love going out with his large network of friends as well as meeting new ones
