Kyle Fleischmann's family and friends are now planning a huge search party.
The 24-year-old went to the Buckhead Saloon and left early Friday morning.
Fleischmann left his coat and debit car inside the bar.
The last communication from his phone were a couple of calls that were placed around 3 a.m. When no one answered, the caller didn't leave a message.
Those calls have led a private investigator to the Holiday Inn in Center City Charlotte.
Fleischmann's family want to know if he got into a car with a person who may have tried to rob him. His family and friends fear he may have been mugged, kidnapped or abducted.
His parents, Dick and Barbara Fleischmann, say it has been days since their oldest son Kyle went missing.
"If something happened and someone did something to him, please communicate with us," said Dick Fleischmann.
Kyle is a graduate of Elon University. Tuesday students took donations on campus to help pay for the investigator. About 20 students also packed up a car to head to Charlotte and help with the search party.
"We want to just make everyone aware as we can," said Jaky Roeland, who is a close friend of Kyle's. "We'll stay as late as we need to."
