Eight-year-old Scott Christian Echols was last seen in Muscoy, California, on July 27, 1992. He had been sleeping on a living room couch while his parents and two siblings slept in a bedroom. At about 2:30 a.m. someone knocked at the door; Scott reportedly answered and left the house on his bicycle. Neither he nor the bicycle was ever found.

Scott was described as 4 feet 3 inches tall, about 70 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes, a scar on the left side of his lower lip, and was wearing a Los Angeles Dodgers t-shirt and acid-washed jeans. The file notes he sometimes panhandled and had been on probation for setting fire to an abandoned building the year before. Neighbors raised concerns about the family, but relatives were screened and investigators do not believe family members were involved.

Widespread searches and missing-person posters produced no substantial leads and the case remains unsolved. Did anyone in Muscoy in 1992 see a boy on a bicycle late that night or recall anything unusual around the Echols home?
