Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP17871) and 8 other sources
Roy Gene Chittum, 52, was last seen on August 23, 2012, in Barrington, New Hampshire. After leaving his workplace that day, Chittum drove his truck to Barrington Mobile Home Estates, where he resided. His vehicle was found parked near his home, but Chittum was not inside and has not been heard from since. His disappearance raised concerns due to personal issues he was reportedly facing at the time, which led authorities to worry about his safety.

Chittum, described as a white male with gray hair, brown eyes, and standing between 5'9" and 5'11", was clean-shaven when he disappeared. He was last seen wearing a distinctive baseball cap that read "American by birth Marine by choice." Despite extensive searches by local authorities, including in areas near his home, no clues about his whereabouts have been discovered.

Investigators continue to treat his case as an unresolved missing person investigation, with concerns that his disappearance may be linked to personal struggles he was experiencing before vanishing. Chittum’s case remains open, and authorities are still seeking information that could provide any insight into what happened to him. Anyone with details is encouraged to contact the Barrington Police Department.
