A Southern Kentucky family is begging for the publics help in finding a loved one. Ricky Melton, 27, of corbin has been missing for the last 14 days. Now his family is offering a reward for his return.
“We’re devastated, worried, we are concerned we just want answers,” said Candace Melton, Ricky’s cousin.
The last two weeks have been a whirlwind of questions and constant unknowns for family, all weighing heavily on those searching for Metlon. “We are just in a panic because we want to know something, we want to know where he is at, if he is okay,” said Candace.

Melton typically talks to his parents or twin brother daily. He was last seen on July 26th at his Corbin apartment. That night he called his father like usual, but no one has heard from him since.
“At his apartment his car was there, keys to his car and his apartment were inside the apartment and one of his cell phones was there. None of his clothes were gone, any of his personal belongings, none of it is gone,” said Candace.
The only thing missing was Melton’s other cell phone. For days the phone only rang, but now it goes straight to voice mail. All signs family said suggests something is wrong. “He’s been missing this long, I mean 14 days is a long time to go without somebody that you speak to everyday,” said Candace.
Now as the days add up, and the avenues of where to look dwindle, Melton’s family doesn’t know where else to turn. They’re holding onto hope, and asking for anyone and everyone’s help.
“We just wish somebody would come forward with some information… We just can’t get anywhere, at this point we are just asking for prayers,” said Candace.
Ricky Melton’s family is offering a $1,500 reward for information that leads to finding him. They are asking anyone who sees Melton, or has talked to him since he has been missing, to call Kentucky State Police.
