ST. PAUL, Minn.-- Those who knew Harold Schroetter say he's not the type person who would be murdered by a friend, and yet that's the theory the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension is going with for now.

"We believe he's likely deceased and the victim of foul play," BCA assistant commissioner Dave Bjerga told reporters Friday in Saint Paul.

Schroetter, a 57-year-old postal worker and former Navy submarine man, disappeared a year ago this week. He was last seen in his Falcon Heights home Feb. 25, 2009. His red Chrysler turned up in the parking lot of a housing complex on Saint Paul's north end.

Spotlight on Crime has announced a $50,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the individual or individuals responsible for the disappearance of Harold Schroetter. He was last seen at his Falcon Heights home one year ago Feb. 26. Investigators believe Schroetter is the victim of foul play, but they have been unable to locate his body.

Investigators hope the reward encourages someone to come forward with information. Investigators are also urging Minnesotans, particularly residents who live in the Twin Cities, Mille Lacs County or locations in between, to walk their properties in search of Schroetter.

Details of Disappearance​

Schroetter was last seen leaving his home in Falcon Heights, Minnesota on the morning of February 26, 2009, en route to an appointment with his attorney. He never arrived and has never been heard from again. His live-in girlfriend reported him missing on February 27.

On March 1, his red 2004 Chrysler Crossfire with Minnesota license plates numbered PRH-028 was found abandoned in the parking lot of a housing complex near the intersection of Timberlake Road and Jackson Street in St. Paul, Minnesota, just a few miles from his home. There were no indications of foul play at the scene, and no sign of Schroetter. A photo of the car is posted with this case summary.

At the time he went missing, Schroetter was in the process of a breakup with his girlfriend. When investigators searched her car, they found Schroetter's blood on the trunk latch. They also learned the girlfriend and her brother had just installed a new trunk liner for the vehicle.

Schroetter's girlfriend and her brother are the prime suspects in his disappearance. Authorities believe they will be charged with murder eventually, but as of yet there is insufficient evidence to make a case.

Schroetter is a Navy veteran. He worked for the U.S. Postal Service at the time of his disappearance. He frequented local casinos. His case remains unsolved.
