Pyke was last seen at approximately 3 PM on April 2, 1999, in the vicinity of the 2000 block of State Route 11 in the Evans Mills, NY area. He stopped at a cousin’s home but didn’t leave the car. He had driven away from his home in the 4900 block of Aitchison Road to visit a relative in Watertown, NY. His family reported him missing two days later when he did not return. Pyke had previously left on short trips and returned on his own, which is why his loved ones did not report his disappearance immediately. Pyke’s vehicle, a dark blue 1989 Chevrolet Blazer with a black top, chrome diamond running boards, and New York license plates numbered FMS 867, is also missing.

Anyone who might have information regarding Mr. Pyke’s whereabouts is asked to contact the Onondaga County Sheriff’s Office
