FDLE continues to search for Brian Klecha
For Immediate Release
December 29, 2025


TAMPA, Fla.
– The Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) continues to pursue leads into the 2017 disappearance of Lakeland Air Force veteran Brian Edward Klecha.

“Eight years have passed and we are just as committed as ever to finding out the truth of what happened,” said FDLE Tampa Special Agent in Charge Mark Brutnell.

Brian Klecha was last seen making a banking transaction on December 27, 2017, at MIDFLORIDA Credit Union in Auburndale. He has ties to Orange, Polk and Hillsborough counties and was an employee of the Disney Corporation. Klecha was 35 years old at the time when he vanished.

On February 11, 2018, Klecha’s Jeep Patriot was found abandoned on State Road 618 in Tampa at the Morgan Street exit. Investigators believe the Jeep had been involved in a car accident a few days earlier.

Agents believe Klecha may have been the victim of domestic or drug abuse and did not leave or go missing on his own.

“If you have any information that can help us locate Brian, no matter how small, call us,” said Brutnell. “Even the tiniest shred of information can bring him that much closer to coming home.”
