Long Duong, 21, was last seen January 31, 1998, at Bodega Head beach in Sonoma County, California. He had been fishing from a rock when a large, thirteen-foot wave hit and swept him out to sea. An extensive two-day search turned up no sign of him, and he is presumed to have drowned though his body was never recovered.

Duong had lived in Santa Rosa for about ten years and worked in the meat department at G&G Supermarket. He was 5 feet 4 inches tall, about 110 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. He was last seen wearing a white t-shirt and white sweatpants.

The circumstances leave key questions about exactly what happened on the rock and whether any further evidence might surface. Anyone who was at Bodega Head that day or who knew Long’s routines and friendships is asked to come forward with information.
