Robert Ray Honeycut, 31 -  May 2009

A Knott County man is still missing after a car accident just miles from his home. Police say Robert Ray Honeycut walked away from the accident and vanished. Family members say they have not heard from Robert Ray Honeycut since May 5th, the day of the accident. They say for Honeycut to go this long with no contact, something must be wrong. Glen Honeycut says his son Robert left his home in Litt Carr and was on his way to the store. He says, "About 30 minutes later I got a call back saying he had wrecked." Honeycut's step sister Lisa Smith passed the scene of the accident on Highway 160 minutes after it happened, "There was three or four people walking beside the road, and it was in a curve that wasn't safe to stop or to linger and you couldn't stop. And I just kept on going and I didn't know until the next day that it was robert that had wrecked." There are still skid marks on the road where Honeycut's car went over the guard rail and down the embankment. After that, family members say they are unsure exactly what happened. Witnesses say they saw Honeycut come to the main road with visible injuries, but he was gone before police arrived. "They told us he came up the hill, went to a car, and got in it," says Glen Honeycut. Lisa Smith says, "We've been told that they've seen him go back over into the hill where the car accident was. Then we've been told that he has been seen in Double Kwik. We've been told everything." Smith fears something must be wrong to not hear from Honeycut in nearly three weeks. "If he could possibly communicate with his mom and dad, he would at least get a phone call through to them, because I know they want him home." There is a five thousand dollar reward for information that brings Robert Honeycut home.
