Patsy Delois Clark, 55, vanished from Little Rock in early March 1987. The last reported sighting was March 4, 1987, when her ex-husband—who still lived with her—said he saw her get into yellow cab number 289 in front of their mobile home on Sunset Lane en route to Fayetteville to visit a son. Patsy never arrived and investigators found no dispatch record or fare log for that cab. She frequently traveled by bus and was well known to local bus staff, but no one recalled seeing her that day.

Patsy was described as 5 feet 0 inches to 5 feet 3 inches, 165 to 180 pounds, with brown hair and green eyes. Distinguishing marks included scars on her forehead and across the bridge of her nose, a Cesarean section scar, and healed fractures to her pelvis and left shin. Her monthly Social Security checks, her only income, were not picked up, yet the April and May 1987 checks were later cashed. Family members describe a history of domestic violence, and her son David believes foul play was involved. Patsy was declared legally dead five years after she disappeared, but her case remains unsolved.

Did anyone ever see a yellow cab 289 in Little Rock on March 4, 1987, or know who might have cashed Patsy’s missing checks?
