Pennsylvania State Police is offering a $5,000 reward to anyone who can help them solve the 25-year-old disappearance or locate Eric Wayne Pyles, who disappeared 25 years ago.

Pyles, also known as Nick Cagnow, went missing on Dec. 12, 2000, in Jonestown after he got off his school bus near his home on Awol Road.

Police said the 12-year-old did not walk toward his residence but instead walked south of Awol Road through the backyard of a house on Silvertown Road.

He was later seen at 2:45 p.m. by the secretary of Jonestown Bible Church, which is near his home.

Pyles, originally from Luray, Virginia, has not been seen since. At the time of his disappearance, both of his parents were living in Luray.

Eric was living with his half-sister in central Pennsylvania after a court in Luray award
