Mystery of Lyon sisters remains unsolved in 1960 case
Five years after Sheila Lyon and Katherine Lyon vanished while walking to Wheaton Plaza they have not been found. Witnesses recalled a man with a tape recorder trailing the sisters at the center and a pizza stop. Police chased leads, including a moving station wagon with Maryland tags and a ransom note later deemed bogus. Local hunts, CB radio volunteers, and a Psychic tip failed to produce results. The father John Lyon, a WMAL radio personality, and his wife reported the girls missing. The case remains open with no clear resolution to this day.
