The family of a US man whose fianc\u00e9e disappeared during a road trip say he is now missing too.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Brian Laundrie, 23, is a person of interest in the case but police say he is not wanted for any crime.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

He and Gabrielle “Gabby” Petito, 22, set out on a cross-country campervan trip in July, documenting their adventures on social media.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

But on 1 September, Mr Laundrie returned home alone. Ms Petito’s family later reported her missing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

This week local police said they had been trying to speak to Mr Laundrie but he was refusing to talk.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

In a statement on Friday, police said Mr Laundrie’s family told them they had not seen their son since Tuesday. In a statement, police said they were “frustrated” by the developments.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

“For six days, the North Port Police Department and the FBI have been pleading with the family to contact investigators regarding Brian’s fianc\u00e9e Gabby Petito. Friday is the first time they have spoken with investigators in detail,” it read.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

“We are not currently working a crime investigation,” it added. “We are now working a multiple missing person investigations.”<\/p>\n

\n
\n

Protesters gathered outside the Laundrie family home on Friday, shouting “where’s Gabby?” as police met his parents.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Mr Laundrie’s sister Cassandra told ABC News she had mostly been learning what has been happening from the news.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

“Obviously, me and my family want Gabby to be found safe. She is like a sister and my children love her, and all I want is for her to come home safe and sound and this be just a big misunderstanding,” she said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

A lawyer for Ms Petito’s family said: “All of Gabby’s family want the world to know that Brian is not missing, he is hiding. Gabby is missing.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

The couple set off on a nomadic nationwide road trip in a white Ford Transit van in July, posting updates on social media.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

They filmed themselves smiling, kissing, and running on beaches\u00a0in a YouTube video, “Beginning Our Van Life Journey”<\/a>, which has been viewed over 600,000 times.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

Two weeks before Ms Petito went missing, on 12 August, police in the southern Utah town of Moab were called to a possible domestic violence incident involving the couple.<\/p>\n

\n

Police released bodycam footage which showed Ms Petito crying and complaining about her mental health to officers. She also said the couple had been arguing more frequently.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

The officers recommended they spend the night apart but did not file any charges. It is not yet known what happened next.<\/p>\n
