Mark Himebaugh was last seen on November 25, 1991, in his Del Haven, New Jersey, neighborhood. He was eleven years old at the time. Mark had left his residence and was last observed in the beachside community at a local park at approximately 4:00 p.m. that afternoon. After Mark's mother could not locate him, local authorities in Middle Township were contacted, however, Mark was not located.
In 2000, an anonymous phone call came in to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, who called himself 'the son of the witness'. It was an anonymous phone call in 2010 at 3:45 a.m. from a pay phone in Philadelphia. He said that Gilbert Patrick Marie may have been involved in Mark's disappearance. There has not been anyone tracked by that name. While the caller seemed sincere, there's been no further information published in this lead.
The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children used age progression process to create this photo as Mark at about the age of 40.
