Robert Hutchinson is a man from Hendon, Sunderland, United Kingdom, who disappeared on 23 June 2014. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]
He left his home on 23 June 2014 at 18:20 BST in a blue Nissan Micra. [5] The car was found in Stewart Street, just off Chester Road, the following day. [5] [2]
His family reported him missing three days later. [2]
Northumbria Police considered the disappearance as a possible murder as early as July 2014. [2] [1] Two men, aged 39 and 55 were arrested and bailed by then. [2]
Crimestoppers UK offered a reward of £3,000 for information that might help in the murder investigation. [5]
In 2017, a reward of £10,000 was offered by Crimestoppers for information. [3] Nobody had been charged in relation to his disappearance by that date. [3]
In 2019, police released CCTV of people on Chester Road around the time of his disappearance. [4] By then, three men had been arrested, but none charged. [4]
In 2020, his daughter Paula Hutchinson issued an appeal for anyone with information about her father [7] to get in touch, including anonymously. [1] She said it was very much out of character for him to not be in contact with his family for such a long time as he loved them so much. [1] [6]
