Circumstances of Disappearance

Victor was driving a midnight blue 2-door Acura Legend coupe with NJ plate JHW65F. He never arrived at the business to drop off the pagers or returned to work. The car has never been found.

His apartment door was found opened, lights and television were on, and the apartment had been ransacked.
