Family and friends of Eric Brescher of Warren, who was last seen July 27 when he was dropped off at his home in the 13000 block of Georgiana, are worried he may be dead and buried somewhere in Detroit.
They say Brescher, 36, who used to dabble in drugs, may have gone back to Detroit to buy crack cocaine when he was dropped off after a concert. Friends and family fear he may have been killed for his cellphone and cash, and dumped in a field with high weeds and debris or left in an abandoned home in Detroit.

“Eric was a troubled young man, but he was a good, honest person,” said his mother, Cindy Basar.
“We often check with the morgues, hospitals, friends and asked Detroit (police) for help,” said Warren Detective Lt. Heidi Metz. “We are still investigating Mr. Brescher’s disappearance and are asking the public for help in trying to find him.”
Eric’s sister was the last to hear from him on July 25 when they exchanged text messages. Family members are afraid someone knows where he is but is keeping the information from police.
“We’ve tried to call Eric but some guy answers his cellphone and hangs up,” his mother said. “We are worried. We are very worried.”
Friends James Garnett and James Harnett, both Warren residents, had nothing but praise for Brescher. They said he may have used drugs but never missed work and was an honest and sincere man.
Garnett said he and Harnett dropped off Brescher at 12:30 a.m. after a concert in downtown Detroit and expected to see him in the morning to go to work.
Garnett said Bresher just disappeared.
“He was my best friend,” Garnett said. “He was a wonderful person who lived life to the fullest.”
Eric, a graduate of Lincoln High School, is single and owns a maintenance company.
Harnett said he hopes someone comes forward with helpful information.
Harnett said he has been passing out pictures of Bresher south of Eight Mile where he was seen walking between Groesbeck and Schoenherr, east of Vince’s Bakery & Party Store.
“Some guy said it was him,” Harnett said. “He said he has known him for years.”
Crime Stoppers of Michigan is offering a reward up to $1,000 for information leading to finding Eric. Those with information can call 800-speakup and remain anonymous.
