Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP29031) and 5 other sources
William David Henderson, aged 55, was last seen in San Francisco, California, on September 11, 2003. On the day of his disappearance, he was wearing a gray jacket, white shirt, black pants, and black shoes. Henderson, who had white hair, hazel eyes, and a scar on the back of his head from a hair transplant, also required prescription eyeglasses with black rims. He was a dependent adult, which raised concerns about his well-being when he vanished.

The day after he was last seen, Henderson's car was found abandoned near the beach in Pacifica, California, a short distance from San Francisco. Despite this discovery, few additional clues have surfaced, and his case remains unsolved. Investigators from the San Francisco Police Department continue to seek information that could lead to a resolution. Henderson may have gone by his middle name, David, but there has been little development in the investigation since his disappearance.

Anyone with information about Henderson’s case is encouraged to contact authorities. His case remains open and unsolved, with minimal details available about his final movements.
