Donald Smatlak, 25, vanished from his North Versailles, Pennsylvania, apartment after a phone call with his mother on the afternoon of Saturday, January 28, 2006. He told his mother he planned to visit a friend in Delmont that evening and was expected at a family dinner the next day; he never arrived and the friend never saw him. That call was the last confirmed contact.
On February 9, 2006, Donny’s silver 2004 Mazda 3 was found abandoned in Pittsburgh’s Oakland neighborhood near Meyran Avenue and Louisa Street, with windows rolled down and snow inside consistent with being parked since the snowfall of February 2 or 3. His apartment showed no signs of a struggle; investigators later noted evidence and witness statements suggesting he had been involved in selling drugs and found a large amount of cash. There has been no activity on his phone or bank accounts since the last call.
The North Versailles Police Department reopened the investigation in March 2020. Does anyone have information about Donny’s movements in late January 2006 or about the Mazda being left in Oakland?
