PAbowhunter4life Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 Bowhunter Missing: PLEASE READ (Ryan Hamre) We need everyones help here. Ryan Hamre, Associate Editor of Petersen's Bowhunting Magazine has been missing since Saturday morning the 17th in Rice, MN. Ryan is 24 years old, brownish/blonde hair, 6 foot tall and about 185 pounds. Ryan lives in Nisswa, MN and his parents live in Winona, MN which is where Ryan was expected to be going Saturday morning. Ryan never showed up in Winona and no one has heard from him since Friday night. I'm attaching a report that ran in the Winona Daily News. there's a chance Ryan might have changed his mind and headed North to an Ice Fishing festical in Walker, MN (leech lake sp?). Ryan drives a dark blue 4x4 Dakota Dodge with a white canopy. It's very uncharacteristic of Ryan, he loves working with the magazine and is family guy with a great relationship with his father, mother and two sisters. Please, anyone who lives in MN or happened to be in the Brainerd, Rice, Nisswa area this past week, if you happen to have some time, please keep an eye out for Ryan's Blue Dodge pickup or if you have any info, time to help looking, planes to help fly the area please contact the numbers listed here are some numbers to call: Nisswa Police Department at (218) 963-4301 or the Crow Wing County Sheriff's Department at (218) 829-4749. also, here shortly we'll have a section on our webpage with pictures and updates on Ryan Hamre, please visit; www.bowhuntingmag.com Nisswa man missing Police seek Ryan Hamre, unseen since Saturday By MATT ERICKSON Staff Writer Nisswa police are looking for a 24-year-old man believed to be missing since Saturday. Police Chief Craig Taylor said Ryan Christoffer Hamre, of Nisswa, last talked to friends Friday, saying he planned to visit his parents in Winona over the weekend. Surveillance cameras recorded Hamre buying gasoline, oil and getting cash from an ATM at 5:53 a.m. Saturday at a Rice gas station. What happened to Hamre after he left the Rice gas station isn't known, Taylor said. He never arrived at his parents' Winona home and hasn't contacted family members or friends since Friday. "It's very uncharacteristic of Ryan to do something like this," said Ryan Hamre's mother, Pamela Hamre. "He never misses work. He loves his job. We've contacted every one of his friends. He has a lot of them, they have a kind of network, and no one has heard from him since Friday. It's very unusual." Pamela Hamre said her son didn't mention that he was coming to visit them in Winona this past weekend, but had left a message at their house on Friday. She said it wasn't unusual for Ryan Hamre to visit without calling first. Pamela Hamre also made a plea to the public to help find her son. Nisswa police received a missing person report Tuesday after Ryan Hamre failed to show up for work and his cell phone was found in a ditch along Highway 10 near Royalton. Taylor said foul play isn't suspected but family members said it was uncharacteristic for him to leave without telling anyone. "It's suspicious in that he's never done anything like this before," Taylor said. "Nobody's heard from him, not friends or family." Hamre is an associate editor at Petersen's Bowhunting magazine, which is a division of InterMedia, the parent company of In-Fisherman magazine. Patty Harrison, an employee with In-Fisherman, said Hamre had worked with the bowhunting magazine for about two years. She said Hamre gave no indication to InterMedia that he wouldn't be in to work on Tuesday. "He loves his job and it's unlike him to not call in and let either his parents or his employers know where he was," Harrison said Wednesday. "He's a very responsible young man." InterMedia employees Wednesday planned to place posters featuring photos and a description of Ryan Hamre throughout the Brainerd area. Hamre is described as a white man, 6 feet tall, weighing 175 pounds, with blond hair and blue eyes. He wears glasses and has a beard. He was driving a dark blue Dodge Dakota pickup and was last seen wearing a black jacket, a yellow polo shirt with stripes, blue jeans, black shoes and a gray baseball cap. Anyone with information is asked to call the Nisswa Police Department at (218) 963-4301 or the Crow Wing County Sheriff's Department at (218) 829-4749. Thank you for taking the time to read this and please keep positive thoughts for our bowhunting brother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosierbuck Posted February 24, 2007 Report Share Posted February 24, 2007 Re: BOWHUNTER MISSING!!!!!!! I don't know about fishy, but I can tell you that when I was young (like this guy), and unmarried (like this guy) there were times I'd get a wild hair and not turn up where I was expected. Sometimes it might have been chasing some girl, sometimes it might have been wasnting to try a different fishing hole, or coyote hunting, or any number of other things that aren't "fishy." Being young and a little irresponsible at times, it often did not dawn on me that I had caused concern for others by not being "findable." Just a thought.

mehunter Posted February 24, 2007 Report Share Posted February 24, 2007 Re: BOWHUNTER MISSING!!!!!!! Hey everyone needs to escape sometimes, but you need to let at least one person know where you will be just in case. I am sure family and friends were worried.
