Summary

It's time for a missing persons case! Ash gets the lowdown on the mysterious 2006 disappearance of Brian Shaffer. Brian was a second-year med student at Ohio State University. One night he walked out of a bar and was never seen again - just poof into thin air. 18 years later this case remains unsolved.

At the time of his disappearance, Brian was 6 feet 2, around 165 pounds, and had brown hair and hazel eyes. He had a Pearl Jam tattoo on his upper right arm, and a dot on the iris of his left eye. He was last seen wearing jeans, a blue or green striped shirt and tennis shoes.

Anyone with information regarding the disappearance of Brian Shaffer is urged to call the Columbus Police Department at 614-645-4545 or Central Ohio Crime Stoppers anonymous tip line at 614-461-8477.
