There is a video report at the News Channel 2 site as well

Another report about Eric explains more of possibly why he disappeared.

'Eric Hall, 24, left his aunt's house in Deep Creek on Feb. 3 during a flashback to his service in Iraq. He was injured while on foot patrol in Fallujah in June 2005; an improvised explosive device killed a man he was with and mangled his thigh. Eric was medically retired from the Marine Corps, where his mother, Becky Hall, said he had planned to make his career. A few weeks before his disappearance, he moved from Indiana to Florida for a fresh start.'

'Eric seemed to believe enemies were out to get him the day he disappeared, relatives said. He had previously been diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder and received some treatment from the Veteran's Administration.'
