Gerald Bradshaw was 21 when he disappeared from Virginia Beach, Virginia. Reports place him last seen on April 6, 1982, although some accounts say the family’s last contact was March 17, 1982, leaving the timeline unclear. He had recently moved out of a local motel and was planning to travel to Texas to recover a van that had been stolen and later located; his mother in Florida had sent money via Western Union for that trip.

Gerald is described as 5 feet 11 inches, about 150 pounds, with curly sandy-colored hair, greenish-brown eyes, a crippled left leg, and various scars. After leaving the motel he never reached Texas and did not return to his mother’s home in Florida, and communications ceased. The Virginia Beach Police Department lists his case as an active missing person investigation.

Does anyone have information about Gerald’s movements in Virginia Beach in March–April 1982 or recall seeing him after those dates?
