Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP4559) and 6 other sources
Larry Dean Williams, a 16-year-old from Long Beach, California, was last seen on July 1, 1975. Larry, who was also known by the nickname "Rabbit," was leaving his home on his way to the beach, a place he frequently visited by hitchhiking between Long Beach and Seal Beach. He never returned home and has not been seen since.

At the time of his disappearance, Larry was described as 4'9" tall and weighing 80-90 pounds, with blond hair and brown eyes. He had a chipped front tooth, a hernia scar on his abdomen, and a burn scar on the crown of his head. Despite extensive searches and investigations by the Long Beach Police Department, no significant leads have surfaced regarding his whereabouts.

Larry's case remains classified as endangered missing, and there is still hope that someone may have information that could help resolve this long-standing mystery. If you have any information, authorities continue to encourage tips to assist in locating Larry.
