Larry Petersen was 36 when he was last seen on December 22, 1996, near the Sacramento Deep Water Channel in California. He disappeared from that stretch of waterway, a remote area connected to the Sacramento River, and very few details about the circumstances are available.

Searches focused on the Deep Water Channel but produced no substantial leads. His case is listed with the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System and remains open. Investigators continue to seek information that could explain what happened or locate Petersen.

If anyone remembers seeing something unusual in the Sacramento Deep Water Channel area around December 22, 1996, please come forward with what you know.
