On March 27, 1961 an unidentified boy was a victim of a vehicle accident along River Bend Road in Bibb County, Alabama. The boy was picked up hitchhiking along Alabama Highway 25 south of Wilton, AL by a man traveling through River Bend. The driver survived the accident but the child did not. The child supposedly told the driver that he ran away after his parents separated but the child wasn’t in the car long enough to tell any more of his story. The child is estimated to be 14-17 years old. He had light brown hair and blue eyes. He stood approximately 5’6” tall. He had a homemade tattoo on his left arm that read “R.Y. in love” or “R+Y in Love”. The clothing he was wearing is unknown but he was wearing a Timex wrist watch. He also carried with him a suitcase full of clothing, a brown wallet that did not contain identification, and a pack of Pall Mall cigarettes with a South Carolina tax stamp on it. The image above is a facial reconstruction created by a NCMEC forensic artist and depicts what the boy may have looked like in life.
