Jay Walter Burns, 56, was last seen by his wife on the morning of January 25, 1984, as he left their Rochester, Pennsylvania home to work the 6:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. shift at J&L Steel Mill in Aliquippa. He never arrived for work and has not been seen or heard from since.

Jay was described as a white male, 5 feet 10 inches, 180–190 pounds, with graying red/auburn hair, blue eyes and a long scar on one arm from a dog bite. He was wearing a navy blue jacket, a silver watch, a wedding band and gray eyeglasses with smoked lenses and plastic frames when last seen; he required a hearing aid that he left at home. His 1974 blue Dodge sedan was found abandoned on a Rochester bridge with the engine running but no sign of Jay.

The Beaver County Detective Bureau classifies the case as endangered and suspects foul play, but no significant leads have emerged. Does anyone have memories, tips, or information about Jay, his car, or that bridge on January 25, 1984?
