Darwin Sylvester was last seen on May 28, 1998 at approximately 2300 hrs.
He had been driven into Winnipeg from Brandon by several acquaintances earlier that evening. He was dropped off by his friends at a residence on Chalmers Avenue, Winnipeg at approximately 23:00 hrs.
He called his girlfriend shortly after midnight on May 29, 1998. He had plans to meet with an associate for breakfast, however he never showed for that meeting. His belongings and luggage were all located at the residence on Chalmers, however he has not been seen or heard from since the phone call to his girlfriend. Foul play is suspected.
He was a former leader of the motorcycle gang The Spartans and worked at a motorcycle repair shop in Brandon. In late May, Sylvester left a Regina halfway house and returned to Winnipeg, expecting to head up the Spartans once again. He is thought to have been killed by rivaling bikers.
