Michael E. Azzaro was 16 and living in Northridge, California, when he left home at noon on February 13, 1993, driving a red 1992 Isuzu Rodeo. He was with an older acquaintance, Evans York, and they reportedly planned to travel to Los Angeles. Michael intended to buy a .45-caliber pistol and was said to be involved in a plan to acquire marijuana for resale.

Michael’s family, who were on vacation, could not reach him by car phone or pager, which was highly unusual given his regular communication. Two days after he disappeared his vehicle was found abandoned in Lennox, California. Several months later his driver’s license arrived in the mail with no note or return address. Authorities suspected foul play; York was charged with Michael’s murder but was acquitted in 1994. No trace of Michael has ever been found and his body remains missing.

Are there details about Michael’s movements that anyone in Northridge or Lennox remembers from February 1993 that could help explain what happened?
