Following a car accident on January 22, 2022, Tommy Howe, 24, from Antioch, Illinois, was last seen running away from the traffic collision at 11 AM, near Interstate-94 and Route 176.
Howe simply disappeared after the accident, his family says, who began looking for him shortly after that, according to Antioch Police Chief Geoff Guttschow, WGN 9 reported. The family filed a missing persons report late Saturday evening. The chief says he does not know why Tommy ran from the accident or his intended destination.
Police say they learned Howe had an employer-issued cell phone, and he left his phone in the car at the time of the accident.
Authorities could track the employer-issued cell phone to the Old School Forest Preserve, which spans roughly 4500 acres. Without success, this initiated a massive search for Howe’s whereabouts on Sunday.
However, authorities say they located the cell phone within the forest preserve lying in the snow.
Thomas Howe is described as male, 24, with brown hair, brown eyes, Caucasian, and five foot eight inches tall. He was last known to be wearing a gray North Face jacket and jeans.
