MISSING: Noah Enos, 26, last seen leaving Salt Shed concert
CHICAGO (CBS) A Chicago family is asking for help after a 26-year-old man went to a concert with a coworker Monday – and then never came home.
Noah Enos was last seen at the Salt Shed – the new concert venue in the old Morton Salt factory at 1357 N. Elston Ave. CBS 2's Sabrina Franza spoke Wednesday evening with his loved ones.
"We're childhood sweethearts," said Enos' girlfriend, Nicole Wijs. "We've had strong feelings since 13 or 14."
Wijs was finally in the same place as the love of her life. They had been long-distance for years before moving to Wicker Park together last September.
"It's magical to be able to have found each other again, and have the chance that we didn't give ourselves when we were younger - which makes it so much harder for him to be gone again," Wijs said.
On Monday night, a coworker invited Enos to go to the Salt Shed for a concert by the Australian rock band King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard – whom Enos had never heard before. We are told the coworker left without Enos, and he never returned home.
"He came in and gave me a hug and kiss before he left," Wijs said.
That was the last time Wijs saw Enos in person – before the King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard. Enos had sent Snapchats from his seat.
"He texted me an hour later and said, 'Miss you already," Wijs said.
That was the last time she heard from Enos.
"And then he didn't respond to me after 10 o'clock," Wijs said.
The silence didn't make any sense.
"He would have come home by now. He would have called me," Wijs said. "He's had my number memorized for ten years. he would call me."
Wijs, and Enos' borther, Zach, scoured for video. They sought out any clue that could bring Enos home.
"Noah was last seen, to my understanding now, was at 9:30 p.m. walking around with his coworker at the venue on the camera footage," said Wijs said.
With every hour that goes by, their concern grows.
"I'm overwhelmed. I'm scared. I'm nervous. I'm distraught. I'm crumbling," said Wijs, "and I just want him home."
Enos is 5 feet 11 inches tall and weighs 140 pounds, with brown eyes, black hair, and a light complexion.
Anyone with information is asked to contact the Chicago Police Department Area 5 Special Victims Unit at (312) 746-6554.
