I really think it’s UP6105 - NamUs...

Sent a tips with the same unidentified to Namus last year, but didn’t Get a «recived mail» back then, but it was sent so. And did forget it.

But got reminded by a follower on my IG (isluuth) when I posted the unidentified.
This time I also sent it to Erie Police.

What do you think about that match?

That case is so horrific, he was found with 3 others men, all murdered at different times. Two of the four where identified. Serial killer Larry Eyler left a confession that was released after his death in 1994. He killed up to 21 men between 1982 and 1984. He was a homosexual and would mostly target other homosexuals.

Sadly Bryan Keith Fisher's mother Carol passed away in 2007 at the same home Bryan lived in when he went missing. In Carol's obituary it says she had owned an operated Fisher’s Avenue Restaurant for 17 years. Bryan's father is listed as preceded Carol in death. It lists several surviving children including Bryan. https://www.legacy.com/obituaries/name/carol-fisher-obituary?pid=86970813 Bryan is still missing.

I really thought so myself but just found that they identified Brad Doe and it was not Bryan. Really hope his family can find answers soon.

I wonder where exactly he was headed to go fishing; would it have been dangerous for him if he fell into the water alone?

What kind of searches were done when he went missing, and were there any clues, anything to indicate whether he made it to his intended destination?

How far was it from his home? Was he walking there? Was he known to hitchhike or accept rides?

Were there any POIs at the time?

Such good questions a couple more:
His state of mind
From post #3
Relationship problems (the post says possible daughter)
Drives a forest green car (does that mean his car is missing?) if so accident in water?
Quite a few siblings, there must be some more information.

I was wondering about the possible daughter as well. He was young. Possibly a father angry that his daughter was pregnant?

I live in Erie & have always been so curious about this case. Seems like there isn't much information available. It's been almost 40 years now. I always wondered about the circumstances myself, such as persons of interest & state of mind, always the possibility of him going into the water, etc.. 40 years is a very long time. Hope answers are found eventually..

He was 16 when he went missing. Bryan would be 57-years-old today.

Just like you say, there isn't much information but I have the impression that this boy had depression...he was looking for the wrong people or he really did escape but a 16 year old boy without work or money is difficult...
either way
rest in peace
