Family still searching for missing son eight years later

Posted:
KILLEEN -

The search for a missing teen continues as a family pushes to find their son's location. Ben Lund was a 19-year-old when he went missing in June of 2005.

Almost eight years later, his parents are still hopeful that he may be alive.

"It is a very deep wound that will not heal until we know what happened to him," Ben Lund's mother, Beth Lund, said. "You have to really gear up again, and get your facts straight in your head again. And you just have to push on and push forward and hope that Ben is still out there."

Lund was last seen at a party, and his car was found abandoned on the 1900 block of Wood Avenue. Within the last two years, the Lund family have teamed up with the Cue Center for missing persons in North Carolina in efforts to find their son.

"We have the last few locations that we had activity of him before his disappearance, but nothing has turned up in those locations," Commander Scott Meads of the Killeen Police Department said.

The Lund family and the Cue Center are in the process of offering a reward for anyone who can provide specific details of Ben Lund's whereabouts.

They are encouraging for people who have any information to come forward and call the Cue Center at 910-343-1131.
