On August 30, 2017, 23-year-old Terasi Niholimbele left the home that he shared with his wife and young daughter and a friend dropped him off at a residence in Phoenix, Arizona. He has not been seen or heard from since. In the 16 months since Terasi has disappeared, his family has struggled to find answers. 

In Part 1, we discussed the story of Terasi’s family’s journey to the United States to escape war and genocide in their home country. Terasi and his family came to the United States as refugees in 1998, when Terasi was only four years old. He quickly adapted to life in the US, but continued to struggle with some of the challenges faced by those who have been through such traumatic situations.

On July 24, 2009, 82-year-old Peter Achermann was last seen in Staples, Minnesota. He had left his home in Leader, MN to run errands and he was spotted shopping in town. Peter’s wife expected him to be home between 2pm - 3pm that day, but Peter never returned.

The following day, Peter’s ’95 Chevrolet Caprice station wagon was found about 10 miles from his home near a wooded area and his car looked like it was stuck in some mud. Inside of the vehicle was groceries and medication that Peter had picked up for his wife the previous day. However, the car keys and Peter’s walking cane were missing.

According to Peter’s family he was in good health and was not experiencing any type of medical issue that would cause him to be confused and wander off, nor do they believe he would have any reason to walk away from his family.

If you have any information or tips regarding the whereabouts of Peter Achermann please contact the Cass County Sheriff’s Office at (800) 450-2677 or (218) 547-1424.
