Gene Paul Hatfield III was 16 when he left his Belmont, California, home on May 2, 1977 to collect money from his paper route and never returned. His car was later found abandoned at Vista Point near the Golden Gate Bridge, a detail that prompted speculation he may have intended to take his own life, though no definitive evidence supports that conclusion.

Gene was 5 feet 11 inches and 175 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes, and he had mild to severe facial acne; some have suggested his appearance may have caused him emotional distress. No body was ever recovered and the case remains unsolved.

Did anyone who lived or worked near Vista Point in early May 1977 see something that could explain where Gene went?
