It has been a year and a half since a 33-year-old man disappeared in Winnipeg. Police now believe he was a victim of foul play and say someone out there knows something.
The evening of January 30, 2021, was the last time Robert Hutchison spoke with his family. Now 521 days later, Robert's mother Monique Hutchison says her son is still missing.
"We believe someone out there may have information about Robert," Monique said during a plea for information with the Winnipeg Police Service on Tuesday.
In March, months after Robert disappeared, police put out a bulletin saying Hutchison was missing.
Sgt. Andrea Scott of the Missing Persons Unit said investigators have been working to put the pieces of the puzzle together. On Tuesday, she said new information has come to light leading investigators to believe Robert is a victim of foul play.
"He didn't choose to disappear," Scott said. "Someone knows what happened to Robert."
Police believe Robert was last seen on the night of Jan. 31, 2021, somewhere around Manitoba Avenue and Artillery Street – an area he was known to frequent.
