It has been 36 years since the disappearance of then eight-year-old Nicole Morin from her Etobicoke home, and the Toronto Police Service has not given up on their search for her.
Police have again made an appeal for information from the public on the anniversary of her disappearance to help locate the now 44 year old woman.
On Tuesday, July 30, 1985, at approximately 11 a.m., it is reported that Nicole left her apartment located on the top floor of 627 The West Mall Etobicoke and was never seen again, police said.
Nicole was described as white, 4’0″, 55 lbs., with straight shoulder-length brown hair, brown eyes, and had a birth mark on her right upper forehead.
In 2019, an updated artist’s rendition was released by Toronto Police to show what she could look like today in the hope someone recognized her.
Since that day, community members near and far, have reported numerous tips, yet police have been unable to bring this investigation to a conclusion and it is still unknown what exactly happened.
Detectives are asking the community to help them find out what happened to Nicole, and provide closure for her family and friends who continue to miss her.
The girl’s disappearance led to hundreds of people conducting unsuccessful searches in the west end for clues to solve the case.
Anyone with information is asked to contact police at 416-808-2205, email at FindNicole@TorontoPolice.on.ca, or contact the Toronto Police Service – Missing Person’s Unit at 416-808-7411.
