Oscar Florence Hintta, 65, was last seen on November 1, 1989, in Kenton, Michigan, while deer hunting with a friend. The two hunters split up; Hintta’s friend took a break and later saw Hintta head down an old logging road. When he did not return after a few hours the friend alerted authorities and a search began.

Search efforts were hampered by bad weather that moved in soon after his disappearance. A Coast Guard helicopter, canine units and ground teams searched for three days but found no sign of him. At the time he went missing he was wearing bright orange hunting clothes and was carrying an expensive gun, details that prompted concern about his safety in the wilderness.

Hintta remains missing and the case is still an open missing person investigation. Does anyone have information about hunting around Kenton on November 1, 1989, or remember seeing him that day?
