David William Watkins was 40 when he was last seen on April 25, 1998, in Paradise, California. He left driving his mother’s vehicle and did not tell her where he was going; no further communication was received after he left. A few days later the car was found abandoned on Honey Run Road with no sign of Watkins.

Watkins was described as 6 feet 5 inches, about 280 pounds, with blond hair, blue eyes and a scar on his left knee. He was last seen wearing a black shirt, black jeans or shorts, and black and white sneakers. The Paradise Police Department has investigated but the case has produced few leads and remains unsolved.

Does anyone have information about Watkins’s movements in late April 1998 or remember seeing that vehicle on Honey Run Road?
