Annalycia Maria Cruz was last seen on the evening of July 9, 1994 after spending the day on a fishing trip with her mother's live-in boyfriend, William Spear. According to Spear, after fishing, he drove with Annalycia to a local store, where he left her in the car before he went inside to buy an apple. When he returned to the car, Annalycia was gone. Spear has been named as a person of interest in Annalycia's disappearance, though investigators have not been able to gather enough evidence of any crime occurring. According to officials, Annalycia is considered missing under 'suspicious circumstances', and police believe that foul play may have been involved.
