Mom of missing Texas man believed to be in southern Oregon, pleads for answers - KOBI-TV NBC5 / KOTI-TV NBC2
The Sheriff’s Office continues to search areas near Prospect, for a man who was reported missing out of San Antonio on June 7th.
The same day the missing person’s report was filed, the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office says it identified an abandoned motorcycle – belonging to 35-year-old Kirk E. Jones. Sheriff’s began their search after finding Jones’ name in the national missing persons database (NAMUS).
According to NAMUS, “Kirk’s apartment is in good order. His motorcycle and custom helmet are gone as were his wallet and cell phone. It appears that he went somewhere on the motorcycle. Police have no accident reports.”
Kellie Stancliff, the mother of Jones, told NBC5 that he visits her home every weekend for family game night. She continued to call him days before they were supposed to meet on Sunday, June 6th, but he never answered. The family later went to his apartment and knew it was unusual he was not there.

Jones’ motorcycle is a black 2017 Yamaha. Stancliff says the local dealership in San Antonio was unable to track the GPS locator and thinks he may have removed it. San Antonio Police and Jackson County Search and Rescue have also been unsuccessful at pinging his phone.

“I understand if he doesn’t want to be found, I don’t know why and that’s fine, but at least let us know you’re alive. That’s what we’re looking for. We really would like to know that he’s still alive.”
Anyone with information on Jones’ whereabouts is asked to contact the Sheriff’s Office. Their non-emergency dispatch number is 541-776-7206.
