About this Case:
17 year old Roger Ellison was last seen the morning of February 10, 1981 at Cedaredge High School. Roger spoke briefly to one of his friends prior to his first period class, but what happened to him after that is unknown. He did not attend any of his classes that day and he was never seen again. His parents reported that he had been in a good mood before he left to go to school that morning, however, he left without his wallet. A self-proclaimed witness from 1998 claimed that he and a friend were in the Cedaredge area poaching deer in early 1981 when they saw a young man they believed to be Roger being held at gunpoint by another man. Per the case photos, the second photo is Roger age-progressed to 27 years old; third photo is progressed to 48 years. Anyone with information regarding this case is asked to please contact the Delta County Sheriff's Office.
