Luther Valentine Smith was 55 when he disappeared from central Phoenix on July 4, 1991. He was last seen in the area of East Indian School Road and North 20th Street driving a green 1977 Volkswagen Rabbit with Arizona plate GXT001. Smith is described as a White male about 6 feet tall, 230 pounds, with sandy-gray or gray hair and brown eyes; he was also known as Al or L.V.

The car vanished with him. On the same day he disappeared, Smith’s girlfriend received a phone call from her former boyfriend, who reportedly said he had got Smith; the meaning of that remark was never confirmed and remains an unresolved part of the case. The Phoenix Police Department’s Missing Persons Unit is investigating.

If anyone knew Luther, saw that green Volkswagen around July 4, 1991, or has information about the reported phone call, can you help investigators by contacting the Phoenix Police Missing Persons Unit?
