A Knox county family hopes that instead of having a birthday party they’ll have a homecoming celebration after days of searching for their missing loved one.Jonathan “Ryan” Foley’s 27th birthday is tomorrow. His truck has been found but since Tuesday, there’s been no trace of him.
Authorities in Barbourville said they’re working around the clock to try to find 26 year-old Jonathan Ryan Foley, better known as Ryan to family and friends. Foley was last seen Tuesday. His parents, Beverly and Charles said Ryan left home to get gas and made sure to take his dads cell phone with him.

“(He) said he’d be back in 15 minutes. Two hours later we hadn’t heard from him, so we called the phone and it went straight to voice mail,” explained Beverly Foley, Ryan’s Mother.
Worried, the Foley’s began calling Ryan’s friends and eventually police. On Wednesday, they said his pickup was discovered at a Barbourville factory parking lot covered in mud. Detective Steve Owens said it was an odd location.
“Just not a place where any one generally parks a vehicle to leave it for any amount of time. It’s also a controlled parking lot where you expect that if you don’t have a parking pass there it’s going to be towed,” stated Detective Owens.
The family said they are left wondering where Ryan is and if he’ll make it home safely to celebrate tomorrow, his 27th birthday.
At this time the investigation is ongoing, if you have any information you are asked to call Barbourville Police.
