This just in: the SFPD, FBI and sheriff have raided a house at the corner of Page and Masonic, pursuing a search warrant issued for the property and following the investigation into a 1984 missing persons case.
The case was the disappearance of Kevin Collins, who was last seen leaving basketball practice at the St. Agnes school on Page, on February 10, 1984, while waiting for the 43. The disappearance of Kevin Collins sparked a nationwide search: he was on the cover of Newsweek, and he was the first missing child whose picture was printed on milk cartons and shopping bags across the country. Now, almost exactly 29 years after he disappeared and less than a block from where he was last seen, federal and city investigators dug up the back yard of a house at Page and Masonic and discovered buried bones. They haven't confirmed what kind of bones they are, but are sending them away for forensic analysis and calling in cadaver-sniffing dogs to examine the property more closely. The suspect in the abduction is dead now, and the house has since changed hands. Stay tuned, updates to follow.
