2018 — AND 2023 —
Kevin N. Nguyen (FWPD case #2018-12) went out for the night in downtown Fort Wayne and did not come home. The listing's account: he was dropped off at a local bar, and was last seen in the early morning hours of December 8–9, 2018, walking alone, caught on a business's surveillance video; his glasses were found behind the Brass Rail bar, in whose parking lot they were recovered on December 20. The listing's header gives December 10 as the date of last contact, a small disagreement with its own narrative that is printed here rather than resolved. His family's DNA is on file in NamUs, the police hold his dental records, and the FBI's ViCAP program carries the case (entry 2020YDP00001). Greater Fort Wayne Crime Stoppers has offered a reward of up to $2,500. He remains missing.
Seth VanOsdale (Allen County Sheriff's case #2023-185) has been missing since April 1, 2023. He is from Monroeville, at the county's eastern edge; his last confirmed sighting was at Parkview Regional Medical Center in Fort Wayne. The Sheriff's Department publishes no cold-case list of its own; this is its one case carried on the platform where the city's board lives, and it stands open.
