Michael Patrick Bolen was 19 when he disappeared from Norwich, Connecticut. He was last seen on March 6, 2002, leaving his Rogers Avenue home after what has been described as a minor argument and never returned. He reportedly left all his personal belongings behind and his family has had no contact with him since.

Described as a white male about 6 feet 0 inches to 6 feet 1 inch and weighing 220 to 260 pounds, Michael had brown wavy hair kept short, hazel eyes, a pierced ear and a birthmark on his forearm. He often wore a long leather trench coat and was active in role-playing games such as Dungeons and Dragons; he frequented family and friends homes and a local comic book store, Sarge’s Comics in New London.

The circumstances of his sudden departure remain unexplained and the investigation has continued over the years without locating him. Does anyone who knew Michael, saw him in early March 2002, or remembers the long leather trench coat have information that could help clarify what happened?
