21-year-old Boston is a very well-known persona among locals, especially high school students. Very involved in sports, he dreamt of becoming a football trainer one day. “He’s very talented,” said Dylan Baker, the Silverbacks coach. “Boston had a tremendous connection with the guys, always able to motivate them to hustle more.” Colin Lough’s son had never been on the payroll of the local school though, volunteering for the team in his spare time, working in the local mall and in the nearby farms. His disappearance is concerning to the whole team. “Everybody keeps wondering what happened to him. He’s not one of those who would just go AWOL,” added Harrison Snyder, currently holding the position of nickelback in the football team. 

Boston Michael Lough was last seen August 11th at 9:35 pm, wearing a black hoodie, brown jeans and a blue baseball cap. Taking only his wallet and phone, he left the house in a rush, telling his father about some quick errands to run, suggesting meeting with an unknown party. His father, not hearing from him since, had reported his son missing the next morning. The sheriff’s department was unable to establish who Boston was in contact with just before his disappearance, but admits he may be in the company of a male adult. The young man took his car keys but his red Cadillac remained parked on the site.
