Phillip Linville, 36, was last seen on Thursday, September 5 at his residence on Post Oak Rd. According to his mother, Tammy Schlueter, Linville stands at 6’ tall and weighs around 180-200 pounds. He has hazel eyes and brown hair.
His mom said most locals have seen him over the years walking through town around fast food restaurants and the Benton County Library.
Schlueter said her son has no history of disappearing and the family is concerned for his well-being. “I just want my son home safely,” his mother said on Friday. “I have had nothing but sleepless nights and the not knowing is the worst feeling. If Phillip is out there and reads this, I just plead with him to at the very least contact me so I know he is okay.”
Linville lives with his 79-year-old grandmother, Francis Stoneking. She said her grandson left home without a phone, transportation and without his mental health medication.
She said the night before he disappeared, Linville went to bed before her and was gone when she woke up the next morning.
According to Stoneking, Linville has no history of disappearing.
Linville’s sister, Michelle Cole said she is extremely worried about his mental well-being and the family just wants him home safely.
According to his grandmother, a $1,000 reward is being offered for any information leading to Linville’s safe return. For those with any information about Phillip Linville’s whereabouts, please reach out to the Benton County Sheriff’s Office at 731-584-4632.
