luciferlaughs:The puzzling disappearance of Brian Shaffer is one that continues to leave loved ones and police scratching their heads. On the night of March 31, 2006, the 27-year-old medical student went out to an upstairs bar called the ‘’Ugly Tuna Saloona’’ with his friends to celebrate the beginning of spring break. Security cameras show Brian entering the bar and going up the escalator with his friends. At 10 PM, Brian called his girlfriend, whom he had planned a spring break getaway to Miami, to tell her he loved her. Brian went bar-hopping afterward before returning to the Ugly Tuna Saloona for a final round of shots. There, Brian had separated from his group of friends, and surveillance footage shows him briefly speaking to two women by the escalators at 1:55 AM, saying his goodbyes, before heading off-camera, seemingly to re-enter the bar. Brian was never seen again. His companions, unable to find him, repeatedly called him on his phone, but Brian never picked up. When the bar closed at 2 AM, they waited outside for him, but he never showed. Security cameras covering the only exits of the Ugly Tuna Saloona never show Brian Shaffer leaving the bar. The only other possible exit was at an area of the bar that was closed-off to the public because it was under heavy construction, and police determined that it would be difficult for a sober person, much less an inebriated one, to trudge through. Even if Brian had slipped out of the construction exit, there were several other surveillance cameras from surrounding bars that did not pick up any footage of Brian ever leaving through either of the exits. It was as if he had vanished into thin air in the middle of a crowded bar. Over a decade later, and not a single clue as to Brian Shaffer’s whereabouts has surfaced. -- source link
