As Islanders marked International Missing Children’s Day, the Charlottetown police and the Canadian Centre for Child Protection reminded the public that any information may be the key to help officers solve the case of Steven O’Brien, who has been missing for 22 years.
O’Brien was just two months shy of his 19th birthday when he was last seen leaving a club called Myron’s on March 20, 1993. He hasn’t been seen since.
“It’s critical that we keep missing children’s stories in the public eye because there’s always hope that someone will do the right thing and come forward with new information that could lead to a missing child being located,” says Christy Dzikowicz, director of missing children services at the Canadian Centre.
O’Brien was a first-year student at Holland College’s Culinary Institute in Charlottetown when he went missing after a night out with friends.
The day of his disappearance, O’Brien was wearing wire-framed prescription glasses, a burgundy L.L. Bean plaid-lined jacket, blue jeans and hiking boots. His family believes he may have had his keys on him, however his wallet and other personal effects were left in his apartment.
O’Brien has brown eyes and is 5’7” tall. At the time of his disappearance he had dark brown hair and was 145 lb.
