Thirty-year-old Paige Renkoski was last seen on May 24, 1990 in Fowlerville, Michigan. She had dropped her mom off at the Detroit Metro Airport and then left to go home. 

Between 2:30 and 2:45 p.m., she went to a store (located west of Interstate 275 in Canton, Michigan) where she purchased beer. At 3:30 p.m., she stopped on the westbound shoulder of Interstate 96 (located one-half mile from the exit of Fowlerville).

Paige was last seen speaking to two unidentified African-American men. She was seen gesturing and throwing her hands up in the air. One of the men put his hand on her shoulder. A witness who saw Paige and the unidentified man became concerned when he passed Paige's car four hours later at 7:30 p.m.

Police discovered Paige's 1986 silver Oldsmobile Cutlass Calais abandoned with the keys in the ignition, the lights & radio on, the doors unlocked and the engine idling. The driver's side door was unlocked and Paige's purse, wallet, shoes and an open bottle of beer inside the car.

The police don't know why Paige was speaking to the unidentified men and don't know if they were connected to her case. 

At the time of her disappearance, Paige worked as a substitute teacher in Okemos, Michigan. She had a close relationship with her mom and was engaged to be married in November of that same year; however, family members said that Paige might've been having issues with her fiance around the time she went missing. The fiance was ruled out as suspect in Paige's disappearance.

In 2009, detectives told reporters they had a list of six potential suspects in Paige's case, including one suspect who was murdered in 1999 in Detroit. In May of 2011, authorities searched a pond in Handy Township where a woman reported seeing a pair of cement-covered boots around the time of Paige's disappearance.

In November of 2011, the FBI, state & local police began a dig operation in Conway Township to search for Paige's remains; however, her body has not been located. 

As of 2023, Paige has not been located.
