On January 19, his car was found abandoned on Fly Gap Road near Morgan Township, Arkansas, in the Ozark Mountains.

Potts is an Army veteran who served in Afghanistan. His family stated he was sometimes out of touch with them for months at a time, but they fear he may be in danger because it’s uncharacteristic of him to leave his car. He also left behind his wallet, identification and bank cards. His case remains unsolved.
