Otava Radek, 25, disappeared from Middletown, Connecticut; he was last seen on March 23, 1998, driving a gray 1985 Plymouth Reliant and has not been heard from since. He was described as a white male, 5 feet 9 inches to 5 feet 10 inches, 160 to 170 pounds, with brown hair and blue eyes. When last seen he wore a black t-shirt, a black coat with red trim, and black and white pants.

Investigators note Radek spoke very little English and may have worked in the construction industry. The gray Plymouth Reliant has never been recovered; searches of the Connecticut River, including sonar scans, turned up no trace of the vehicle. Authorities have not been able to determine what happened, and speculation that he left the country remains unconfirmed.

Does anyone who knew Otava, worked with him, or saw that Reliant in late March 1998 have information that could help fill the gaps in his timeline?
