- Distinguishing Characteristics:
- Distinguishing Characteristics Caucasian male. Red hair, blue eyes. Hitchcock’s nicknames are Ricky (sometimes spelled “Rickie”), Ritchie and McRitchie. He may have scars on his fingertips, a surgical scar on his nose and a scar on his shin, and he has a skin graft scar on his right hip. Hitchcock normally wears contact lenses, but he didn’t have them in at the time of his disappearance.
- Details of Disappearance:
- On December 22, 1990, at 2:30 AM, Hitchcock left a bar called the Riverfront Lounge in Allegan, Michigan. He then climbed a tall, barbed-wire fence near the Kalamazoo River. He vanished and hasn’t been seen since.
A few days later, his car was found nearby with Christmas presents still inside. Strangely, nobody reported him missing until December 28th. He had a unique keychain with a scorpion on it, and that’s also missing.
Police searched the river thoroughly but found nothing. He never got his last paycheck. His cousin thinks he was murdered, and police suspect foul play, but the case remains a mystery.
