Police offer reward over disappearance of Brisbane man Gerhard Wagner believed murdered in 1999
August 03, 2014
On January 7, 1999, Gerhard, 61, had been working on his boat at a friends workshop in Hemmant.
Police tracked him crossing Story Bridge on his motorbike after leaving the workshop.
After that, Gerhard Wagner, the man who had lived to give, vanished.
Paul believes his brothers murderer was motivated by money. Gerhard was an ordinary man, devoted to his family, giving to a fault. He had no enemies. Perhaps he lent someone money and they didnt want to pay it back?
I think about him nearly every day, Paul said. All these years, what goes through your mind is, how did it happen? Did he know the person or persons? Was he beaten to death? Shot? Stabbed?
Nobody would have believed this would happen. He was ordinary, but he was amazing the way he looked after his family. And these are the real heroes, arent they?
Police this week announced a $250,000 reward for information leading to an arrest. Call Crime Stoppers, phone 1800 333 000.
