Alexander Walter Roberts, known as Alex, was 12 when he vanished from Phoenix, Arizona, in the summer of 1960. He was last seen at his uncle’s home near 13th Street and Brill on July 29 while living with his aunt on West Cavalier Drive and attending eighth grade at St. Agnes School. Alex had sandy brown hair, brown eyes, and a scar under his left eye.

When he disappeared he wore blue Levi’s jeans, a white cotton short-sleeved t-shirt, brown high-top leather shoes, a gold wristwatch with a leather band, and carried a brown wallet. Early on investigators considered the possibility he ran away to California or Texas to stay with relatives, but Phoenix remained a possible location. The Phoenix Police Department continues to list him as missing and age-progressed images have been created.

Few concrete details are available about his movements after July 29, 1960. Does anyone in Phoenix or the surrounding areas remember sightings or family connections that might help explain where Alex went?
