Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP10327) and 4 other sources
In the autumn of 1992, a 49-year-old man named Edward Miskin vanished from the bustling borough of Brooklyn, New York. On October 1st of that year, he was last seen in the vicinity of Woodhull Hospital. At the time of his disappearance, Edward was described as a white male with a light complexion and a medium build. He stood at 5 feet 6 inches tall and weighed approximately 160 pounds. He had black hair and brown eyes, and it was noted that he wore eyeglasses.

The circumstances surrounding Edward's disappearance remain largely unknown, and there is very little information available about what might have happened to him. Since the day he went missing, he has not been seen or heard from again. The New York City Police Department's Missing Persons Squad is the primary agency investigating his case. Despite the passage of decades, his case remains an active and unsolved missing person investigation.

The lack of leads and information has left a painful void for those who may have known and cared for Edward. With no significant developments over the years, his case has grown cold. Investigators continue to hope that someone may come forward with information that could shed light on what happened to Edward Miskin on that October day in 1992. His disappearance serves as a somber reminder of the many individuals who vanish without a trace, leaving behind unanswered questions and enduring uncertainty. The investigation into his whereabouts is ongoing.
