National Coverage
The story of Kenneth Brian Colbert is making national headlines. In an article about the missing Evansville man, NBCNews shares details of their Dateline interview with Colbert's wife, as well as one of his stepchildren. He and his wife have been together for 26 years, and he is described by those who love him as a "family man."
Working the Case
According to Dateline, Evansville Police are no longer working on the case and say that it is now being handled by the Indiana State Police, who told Dateline that they do not suspect foul play. Colbert's wife told Dateline that she does not believe that to be the case. The missing man's phone is no longer working and believes that his sim card has been compromised after making a call to her cellular provider. The family also raises the question of how a 3,000-pound car just disappears.
Searching Land and Water
As the search on land continues, so now does the search in surrounding bodies of water. According to Dateline, the family now has the help of Chaos Divers, an organization that has successfully recovered 15 missing people in the last 15 months. Chaos Divers have searched the Wabash and White Rivers, as well as a number of retention ponds in Indiana for Colbert and his Toyota.

If you have any information regarding the whereabouts of 47-year-old Kenneth Brian Colbert, you are asked to contact the Indiana State Police by calling 1-800-852-3970.
