FBI renews efforts for information about missing Ocean City man

OCEAN CITY — The FBI is offering a $50,000 reward to anyone with information that could help solve the 13-year-old disappearance of a local man.

John Weisbecker has been missing since March 11, 2009, when he was last seen at his Asbury Avenue home by a postal worker about 10:30 a.m. Weisbecker wasn’t home when his family returned about 8 p.m.

Detectives uncovered evidence suggesting Weisbecker was involved in a struggle, and that he may not have left his home of his own will.

Weisbecker, who was 21 at the time of his disappearance, was a white man with brown hair and a mustache, blue eyes, tattoos on his torso and arms, and was 6 feet, 2 inches tall.

Authorities have said information that once may have seemed inconsequential could prove useful in learning more about why Weisbecker vanished.

Anyone with information about Weisbecker can call the FBI’s Newark office at 973-792-3000.
