Teenager From 1977 Still Missing:

In 1977, a teenage girl went missing from a Fairview Park Sunoco gas station located on Lorain Road, never to be seen again. Her name was Yvonne Regler and she was a resident of North Olmsted. It was early afternoon on August 8th when she disappeared. The case baffled the Fairview Park authorities because of the lack of evidence left at the scene. Her purse and belongings, along with large amounts of money, in the cash- register, were left behind.

Back in 1977, “serial killer” was still a new phenomenon. The last thing city authorities were thinking about was a serial abductor on the loose. This is especially true in a blimpish suburb such as Fairview Park. However, besides several serial killers on the loose across the country in 1977, there were several serial killers operating just in the State of Ohio alone.

After the first couple of month’s, because of a lot of distorted facts, the detectives came to the conclusion that she left on her own accord. However, today they are convinced that she was taken against her will and are asking the public for help. In 2016, authorities released to the networks, an age composite of what the 17-year-old would look like if she were still alive. They are asking anyone with information about the disappearance of Yvonne Regler to call Fairview Park Police at: 440-333-1234

To learn more about the case, a documentary produced by local video company, Shocker Enterprises, will air in January, on Cox Cable Wednesdays at 8pm on channel 45 and Cleveland Spectrum on Mondays at 9pm on channel 1025.
