On April 16, 2007, Travis Baker was scheduled to work at 5:30pm at MDI, a food distribution company in Caldwell County, North Carolina. He never showed up for work and his last two paychecks were never picked up.

A little after 9:00am that morning, he spoke with his parents and said he was planning to meet his girlfriend for lunch. He sent his girlfriend a text message at 11:27am saying he was looking forward to seeing her. That was the last time his phone was used.

Travis was last seen driving his red 1998 Chevrolet Camaro, license plate number WRP8627. Police are searching for the vehicle, but it may be a different color by now.

"We just know something happened to him," said Patricia Baker, his mother. "Please, please come talk to us, to the police... (if you know anything)."
