MISSING: KYLE FLEISHMANN
Last Thursday, November 9th, 24 year old Kyle Fleischmann disappeared after a night out with some of his friends in downtown Charlotte. Kyle's family and friends have been searching constantly for any leads as to where he may be. In order to lessen the burden on his family, his close friends have started up the Kyle Fleischmann Foundation. They are trying to raise $100,000 to help pay for investigators, a reward, and any other expenses that may come up. If you're interested in donating to the foundation or you'd like more information, please see Lauren Hodges or send her an email (lauren.elizabeth.hodges@gmail.com). Donations can also be made online at www.helpfindkyle.com.
