    I was next door neighbors and graduated HS with Craig Kettler, who is now the Alvin HS Ag teacher. He went missing Thursday night. Please keep an eye out.

    Has anyone talked to the TXDPS folks?

    That's state-wide and can get to interstate-wide.

    I'm sure they're involved. There are LOTS of eyes on it. He's a very popular, friendly teacher, several generations in Alvin, big family. Facebook comments are 97% 'prayers' but the 3% of comments are very helpful.

    I think the best way to help now is to get the word out. https://www.facebook.com/craig.kettler.1

    Not necessarily true.

    They're not necessarily involved until you get them involved and they say they're involved. The squeaky wheel gets the grease...etc...

    I also saw this on the news this morning: https://www.fox7austin.com/news/organization-heads-to-central-texas-in-hopes-of-finding-missing-man in Austin.

    They mentioned his truck got scanned near Luling/Seguin.

    I hope you get some good news soon and sorry to hear about this, I'll try to share with people too.

    I don't think the other videos/links mentioned the plate scan and apologize in advance if I missed that.

    What are the details?
    Apparently my wife is friends with a bunch of his friends on Facebook, she was telling me about this and then I read it on here.
    Crazy

    I'll get the story eventually and post it. My wife is friends and coworkers with his wife. It might take a bit.

    I don’t know any details, but they broke in on channel 13 news to report that he was found safe.

    The first place I would have looked was in your avatar. Suspicious.

    Glad he was found. Reason for disappearing seems odd. But none of my business.

    Sounds like he wanted to get away for a bit.
