Rankin is a very small town in central Illinois - population probably less than 600 (my inlaws' farm is about an hour south of there). Hopefully someone can recall seeing him that day.

It says his dogs and vehicles were left at home. That’s always sad to hear. His poor dogs.
Also, it states he has a tattoo of his name on his chest.

No details on the circumstances of his disappearance.

I note that in the link in the first post says he was last seen by family. I also note the 2 photos there say they were provided by his daughter.

Where Capt Hartshorn says: “Hartshorn said no other details can be provided at this time”— I wonder if that means they know some things but aren’t sharing at this time. JMO
