Scotia, NY – A 17-year-old Scotia teen disappeared 21 years ago, and New York State Police are again asking the public for help in the case of Craig Frear, who vanished without a trace on June 27, 2004.
According to the New York State Police, Frear was last seen near the Cambridge Manor Apartments in Scotia on a Sunday in 2004. Despite multiple interagency searches and ongoing investigative efforts, no confirmed sightings or significant leads have emerged in over two decades.
Investigators say they remain committed to uncovering the truth and continue their efforts to locate Frear and bring closure to his family. Authorities are urging anyone with information, no matter how minor it may seem, to come forward.
Tips can be submitted via email at Crimetip@troopers.ny.gov or by calling 518-457-6811.
The post, shared Friday morning by State Police on social media, encourages the community to help keep Craig’s story alive, emphasizing that someone may hold the key to solving the long-standing mystery.
