Rodney Shook
Case Information:
Rodney Shook was 38 years old when he disappeared from the Ehren Cutoff area of Land O’Lakes, Florida, on March 20, 2026. He was last seen at approximately 9:00 a.m..
Rodney is known for a very specific style: he typically wears his hat crooked and is rarely seen without both a hat and shades (sunglasses).
Case Details:
At the time of his last confirmed sighting, Rodney was wearing a red long-sleeve shirt and sandals. Beyond his signature hat and glasses, he is also noted for having visible tattoos.
Investigators and family are particularly focused on the area near 583 (Ehren Cutoff), but the search extends to several surrounding communities where he may have connections or sightings.
Timeline of Events:
Rodney was last seen on the morning of March 20, 2026, in Land O’Lakes. When he failed to return or make contact with his family, the disappearance was reported to the Pasco Sheriff’s Office, who officially launched a search on April 16, 2026.
The trail has remained quiet since that morning in March, making community awareness in the neighboring cities vital for any potential leads.
Investigation:
The Pasco Sheriff’s Office is the primary agency investigating Rodney’s disappearance. Deputies have been actively searching the Ehren Cutoff vicinity and following up on community tips.
Local residents in Dade City, San Antonio, Zephyrhills, Spring Hill, Brooksville, Port Richey, New Port Richey, and Hudson are being asked to stay vigilant and report any sightings of a man matching Rodney’s description or his unique clothing style.
Community Response:
Family and volunteers are urging the public to share Rodney’s flyer across Pasco, Hernando, and Citrus Counties. The community is using social media to emphasize that “someone knows something” and to keep the pressure on for answers.
The outreach emphasizes that the family deserves peace of mind and is pleading with anyone in the Land O’ Lakes area who may have seen Rodney on the morning of his disappearance to come forward.
Family Statements:
Rodney’s family remains desperate for information, stating that if it were your family, you would want to know the truth. They describe the lack of answers as a heavy burden and are asking for the public’s help to bring Rodney home safely.
They highlight his distinct personality and style—specifically his constant use of a crooked hat and shades—as key identifiers that they hope will jog someone’s memory.
