Man solves his own missing person case… by remembering who he is

by

A man who suffered a head injury causing him to forget who he was has found his way home after thirty years of being missing. 

The 50-year-old disappeared from a group home in the States in 1986 and has been declared a missing person every since. 

Edgar Latulip who was in his early twenties when he disappeared, is believed to have received a serious head injury while on an outing to Niagara Falls. 

After never returning to his home, his family were left to believe that he had committed suicide or was murdered. 

Instead, Edgar was living alone only 80 miles away from his hometown for the duration of his disappearance. 

The family of the missing man were shocked when he returned home after his severe memory loss started to partially return to him. 

Edgar, who has learning difficulties, was in hospital recovering from a suicide attempt the last time he was seen by family members. 

The true mystery of his identity began top unravel when a social worker began to piece together the fragments of his slowly returning memory and a DNA test confirmed his identity.
