Disappearance of Lars Mittank (en.wikipedia.org)

Mittank was documented acting strangely while alone in Bulgaria. He called home to his mother claiming that people were trying to kill him. On the day when he was supposed to fly home, Mittank went to the Varna Airport to consult with a doctor. He was later seen on airport security footage running out of the airport and towards an adjacent forest. He has never been seen since.

Sounds like he might have had a brain injury caused by the fight. I'm surprised the article doesn't mention that as a possibility. Either way, poor guy.
