East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff’s Office detectives are looking for 28-year-old accountant Benjamin Carey Brown, who was last seen entering his United Plaza Boulevard office early Wednesday morning.

Brown entered the Postlethwaite & Netterville building at 8550 United Plaza Blvd., at 5:20 a.m. Surveillance video does not show him leaving, said Casey Rayborn Hicks, a Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman.

Detectives found Brown’s car in the parking lot of the office building and located some of Brown’s personal belongings inside his office, Hicks said.

Detectives searched the office building, the grounds surrounding the building and checked with area hospitals with no success. They also tried to locate Brown by calling his cell phone, but there was no answer.

Brown is a 5-foot-7-inch white man who weighs about 170 pounds. Anyone with information about his whereabouts can call the Sheriff’s Office at (225) 389-5000 or Crime Stoppers at (225) 344-7867.
