"He led with his heart. It didn't matter if it was in society norms or not. He was going to cross busy traffic to talk to some homeless guy who looked lonely," says Brooke Bays, Landon's sister.

Landon's family says his car was in a nearby McDonald's parking lot, and someone took what belongings he usually carried with him. Police say they are receiving tips and following up on several leads. "The community can rest assured, we are putting all resources on this to find the killer," says Holland.
