From Deseret News archives:
Still no sign of missing southern Utah man
"Missing person," the flier reads.
It has been more than three weeks since the 18-year-old Enoch, Iron County, man disappeared from his job at a Subway store on Sept. 3, and his family is desperate for any answers.
"The sad part is there isn't anything. We still don't know anything," his stepmother, Shannon Coan, said Tuesday. "We've had people call in with leads and sightings, but nothing's turned out."
Coan said the family still doesn't know if he ran away or was kidnapped or something even more dreadful. Enoch police continue to pursue leads and are working to subpoena the phone company, because someone saw Chris on the phone at his job the night he disappeared. There have been sightings of Chris in Logan, Ogden and Park City yet nothing concrete. Searches in the hills and mountains around Enoch have turned up nothing.
For his family, it's been an agonizing few weeks.
"I'm still hopeful that he just decided he had too much stress and pressure," Coan said. "Others are looking at foul play, possibly picking up a hitchhiker ... "
Coan said the family believes that somebody out there knows something.
"If someone would say, 'I saw him. I talked to him. He'll be on his own. He'll contact you when he's ready,"' Coan said. "Right now, our lives are on hold. If we could just know if he's OK."
Anyone with information is asked to call Enoch police at 435-586-9445.
