KELLOGG, ID - The disappearance of Great Falls resident Brian Shookman in Idaho several weeks ago is now being called suspicious by law enforcement officials.

Shookman, 32, was last seen on July 28th while visiting friends in Kellogg, Idaho.

He left a friend's house that afternoon and was expected to be headed to a family gathering at an aunt's house a few miles away at Sunny Slopes near Osburn. However, relatives said he never showed up.

The Shoshone County Sheriff's Office says in a news release that "information has been discovered which leads investigators to believe that the disappearance of Brian Shookman is suspicious and that foul play may have been involved."

Three deputies are following leads on this case, and anyone with information is asked to call the Shoshone County Sheriff's Office at (208) 556.1114.
