Hieu Phuong Tran was 25 when he disappeared from Unalaska, Alaska, in the early hours of January 10, 2003. Of Vietnamese descent, he is 5 feet 5 inches tall, about 160 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. On the night he vanished he was last seen between 1:00 and 2:00 a.m. at the spit dock in Dutch Harbor, driving a rented 1993 Ford truck and dropping off two fishermen. Tran worked on the F/V Retriever, which was docked near Alyeska Seafoods.

Two days later, on January 12, 2003, the rented truck was found abandoned near the small boat launch by Alyeska Seafoods, in the same area where his vessel was berthed. Beyond that discovery there have been no confirmed sightings or word from Tran. The Unalaska Department of Public Safety handled the investigation, which has been limited by a lack of available details.

Does anyone who worked on the Retriever or was in Dutch Harbor that night remember seeing Tran or the 1993 Ford truck?
