Nieko’s uncle’s residence was the last place where he was confirmed to be alive.
Police and other family members were informed by Lisi’s uncle that on 30th September 2011, Nieko and a buddy named Robert Knight arrived at his residence in a gold GMC Canyon pickup.
According to his uncle, Robert Knight informed him that they were traveling to Buffalo, New York, to visit friends and perhaps go camping and that the truck they were driving was his grandpa’s.
But, the friends’ duo never made it to Buffalo; while leaving Nieko’s uncle’s home, and ever since, he has never been seen alive.
Furthermore, on 1st October 2011, Robert Knight came suddenly to his parent’s place and mentioned that Lisi had dropped him off, confirming he arrived house at around 10 AM in Michigan. But, Nieko was never seen actually in Michigan.
Nieko’s family was, at this point, becoming more worried about his whereabouts. On October 1st, at about 5 PM, his grandma was able to get in touch with him via his cell phone.
But, Lisi quickly picked up the call, assuring her that he was unable to speak at the moment but would call her again later. But he didn’t return the call, and nobody else heard from him again.
