Chicago Man Vanishes from Concert: Family Suspects Foul Play

Created: JANUARY 22, 2025

Twenty-six-year-old Noah Enos mysteriously disappeared from a concert at Chicago's Salt Shed venue on Monday night, leaving his family deeply concerned and suspecting foul play. Enos attended the concert with a coworker, and maintained contact with friends through text messages and Snapchat until around 9 p.m., after which his phone died around 10 p.m., according to his family's account.

Enos's coworker informed the family that Enos went to the restroom around 10 p.m., but upon returning, he was nowhere to be found. The coworker reportedly took an Uber home, leaving Enos's whereabouts unknown. Enos resides approximately 15 minutes from the venue with his girlfriend and brother, raising questions about why he didn't return home or contact them.

Enos and his coworker initially walked from Enos's home to a bar before heading to the concert. His mother, Lee Anne Chapin, expressed her concern, highlighting the possibility that Enos could have walked home. However, his girlfriend confirmed that he never contacted her throughout the night.

Chapin's attempts to gather information from AT&T yielded conflicting information. The company reportedly stated that Enos's last communications were around 5 p.m., despite friends possessing text messages timestamped between 7 p.m. and 10 p.m. One text message from Enos to a friend around 8 p.m. indicated his presence at the front of the venue. After a subsequent text around 9 p.m., communication ceased.

When Enos failed to return home, his girlfriend drove to the venue around 4 a.m. to search for him. Chapin expressed her growing suspicion of foul play, noting inconsistencies in the available information. Friends who saw Enos at the concert reported that he appeared to be fine and not intoxicated, adding to the mystery. The lack of contact with his girlfriend, despite knowing her number by heart, further deepens the family's concern.
