[h=1]Owner of popular northwest Denver barbecue restaurant disappears[/h]
Stacy Vantuyl, 44, proprietor of Ragin Hog BBQ, 4361 Lowell Blvd., hasnt been seen or heard from since he vanished while readying for business, according to Denver police and family members.
Vantuyl, married and a father of two teenage sons, typically starts his day around 4 a.m. at the small, family-run eatery. His wife, Colleen, joins him about 8:30 a.m., after their sons have gone to school.
When Colleen arrived Wednesday, Stacy was gone, according to Tuesday Vantuyl, Stacys sister. The back door was unlocked when Colleen arrived. Stacys wallet, his cellphone and vehicle, a mini-van, were all at the restaurant.

Denver police crime scene investigators combed the restaurant Wednesday, dusting for fingerprints and looking for other clues. They may have found a partial, bloody palm print on a wall. Other than that, there is seemingly nothing to go on, Tuesday Vantuyl said.
