David Harvey Hoober was last seen in Gig Harbor, Washington, on January 7, 1987, at age 39. He had collar-length brown hair and blue eyes, stood between 5 feet 10 inches and 6 feet 3 inches, and weighed about 165 to 175 pounds. The Pierce County Sheriff’s Office opened the missing person case that day and has kept the file active.

A later discovery added a puzzling detail: a 1975 blue Lincoln Continental sedan was found and impounded by King County police at a bus stop in Federal Way. The car was not registered in Hoober’s name, and it is unknown whether he had used the vehicle or if its presence was unrelated to his disappearance. No photograph appears in the public file, and there is no clear evidence indicating foul play or a voluntary departure.

If anyone knew David, saw the Lincoln Continental at the Federal Way bus stop around January 1987, or has any information about his movements that day, please come forward.
