Dana Carl Torgeson was 19 when he vanished from his home in Ford, Washington, in the early morning of April 17, 1985. He was last seen at his residence near Kimberly Drive sometime after 1:00 a.m., after leaving following a reported traffic problem. Dana is described as a white male, brown hair and brown eyes, about 5 feet 9 inches and 145 pounds. He wore silver metal-framed glasses and a red flannel shirt, and had a prosthetic left hand made of plastic with two metal hooks.

The Stevens County Sheriff’s Office opened the investigation but found few clues, and no trace of Dana has been located. The case is classified as an endangered missing person and has gone cold over the decades without significant leads. Few details are known about what happened after he left the house that night.
