Alwin Todd Burton, known as Hippie, was 30 when he left his Detroit home on a bicycle and was never seen again. The disappearance occurred on June 1, 1989. He is described as a Black male, 5 feet 5 inches tall, about 130 pounds, with short curly black hair, brown eyes and a strawberry burn mark on his buttocks from a childhood baseball injury.

There were no signs of foul play at the residence, no known conflicts and no indication he intended an extended absence. What he was wearing and where he planned to go that day are not known. The case was filed with the Detroit Police Department but produced no significant leads and remains open.

Does anyone have memories of Alwin, recall seeing him in Detroit around June 1, 1989, or have information that could help clarify where he was headed?
