Ricky Dale Olsen, a 25-year-old man, disappeared on July 4, 1975, from Tallahassee, Florida. At the time of his disappearance, Olsen was serving a ten-year sentence for armed robbery at the Palatka Road Prison. He escaped from the prison on that date, and no information regarding his whereabouts has surfaced since. Olsen was described as being between 5'11" and 6'0" tall, weighing around 150-160 pounds, with brown hair and blue eyes.
He also had scars on his upper lip and chest.
Despite being listed as a fugitive and missing for decades, there has been little to no significant information on his whereabouts. His case remains unresolved, and authorities continue to request any tips that might help locate him. The Florida Department of Corrections and NamUs are involved in maintaining records related to his disappearance.
