He might have been walking to his truck, a green 1995 Dodge Dakota with a blue driver's side door, which was broken down along 112th Street East in Parkland. The truck, Washington license plate B44650P, has not been seen since Allen went missing.

Allen was last seen in a blue Seattle Seahawks baseball cap, green shirt, brown cargo shorts and gray Nike shoes.

"At this point in the investigation there is no suspicion of foul play or illegal activities in his disappearance, but we are concerned for his safety due to the length of time he has not returned home," the agency posted to Twitter.

Anyone with information about the whereabouts of Allen or his truck is asked to contact Pierce County sheriff's deputies.
