According to the FDLE, agents with the agency’s Tampa Bay Regional Operations Center continue to investigate the 2017 disappearance of Brian Edward Klecha of Polk County. He was 35 years old at the time.

Klecha was last seen making a banking transaction on December 27, 2017, at MidFlorida Credit Union in Auburndale, the FDLE said. He reportedly has ties to Orange, Polk, and Hillsborough counties and was an employee of the Disney Corporation.

On February 11, 2018, Klecha’s vehicle was found abandoned on State Road 618 in Tampa at the Morgan Street exit. Investigators believe the Jeep had been involved in a car accident a few days earlier, the FDLE said.

FDLE is investigating Klecha’s disappearance due to its multi-jurisdictional nature.

If you have information about the whereabouts or disappearance of Brian Edward Klecha, please call Special Agent Mark Seckley at (813) 557-5287 or (813) 878-7334.
