A Chicago husband is pleading for answers following the disappearance of his wife, a special education teacher who hasn’t been seen in four days.
Linda Brown, 53, was last seen Saturday morning at the city’s Bronzeville neighborhood, in the 4500 block of Martin Luther King Jr. Drive.
She reportedly left home for an acupuncture appointment in the Wicker Park area, but never arrived, according to a Chicago Teachers Union’s online flyer.
Her husband, Antwon Brown, told FOX 32 Chicago that they watched a movie at home the night prior, then went to bed. When he woke up the following morning, she had already left.
“I’m broke down, I don’t know what to do. I’ve done everything. I’m talking to people; we got people searching for her, I’m out of options. I don’t know what to do,” he said.
Calls and messages to her phone have not been answered.
Antwon Brown said Linda has a history with mental health issues but had never left home before without returning. Chicago police said she may be in need of medical attention.
On Tuesday, Antwon said his wife’s car, a blue Honda Civic, had been found. Police have not released any details on its location, as the investigation into her disappearance continues.
“I am terrified,” Antwon said, according to NBC Chicago. “I am just shaking. I need my wife home.”
Brown, a teacher at Robert Healy Elementary School, is described as standing 5 feet tall and weighing around 130 pounds. She has brown hair, brown eyes, and a fair complexion.
CPD urges anyone with information to contact Area One SVU detectives at 312-747-8380.
