Michael Davis Jeffreys was 19 when he vanished the night of November 24, 2005, after a two-vehicle crash on the State Route 54 bridge over the Susquehanna River between Danville and Riverside, Pennsylvania. Witnesses saw him in the water and police at the scene heard him calling for help. For reasons that remain unclear, he exited the damaged Jeep Wrangler and went over the side into the river.

Search teams from multiple fire companies and a county rescue unit scanned nearly a two-mile stretch of river by boat and helicopter in the days after the incident. A security guard reported hearing cries near a boat dock. The river was swollen from rain and 38 degrees, and the search was suspended because of weather. The Pennsylvania State Police handled the investigation; the Jeep driver was tested for blood alcohol, and Michael was classified as an endangered missing person and is presumed to have drowned. He was described as a white male, about six feet tall, 185 to 200 pounds, with brown hair and blue eyes, last seen in blue jeans, a gray hooded sweatshirt, white sneakers and possibly a Pittsburgh Steelers hat.

Does anyone have information about Michael’s final movements or the stretch of river near the bridge that night?
