This week mark's the 15th Anniversary of one of the Tri-State's biggest unsolved mysteries. On November 6, 1997, 13-year-old Ricky Thomas reportedly left his home in rural Perry County to go to a friend's house, but he never arrived. Rescue crews searched for Thomas for days, but they never found any sign of him. This week the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children sent out reminders of the boy's disappearance, asking anyone with information to step forward.
