Bryce Borca's family marks two years since his disappearance in Eagan

The family of Bryce Borca, a 23-year-old Eagan man who went missing after a night out with friends, have spoken out two years after his disappearance.

Borca's parents, Troy and Carina Borca, released the statement on the two-year anniversary of Borca's Oct. 30, 2022 disappearance. The pair wrote that they "can't believe it's been that long since we've seen Bryce's infectious smile or heard his sweet voice."

The statement was posted to the Bryce's Blessings Facebook page. The nonprofit was created to help other families dealing with child loss following the disappearance.

The statement continued:

Borca's parents also stated that search measures have continued in the last year, including ground and water searches in the marshy areas around Borca's last known location.

Borca went missing after he and his two friends were dropped off by a Lyft driver on the 3200 block of Hill Ridge Drive just after 2 a.m.

He told his friends he was going to walk to his apartment, which was a 40-45 minute walk away. He last spoke with his friends over Facetime at around 2:30 a.m., saying he "didn't know where he was."

Borca was also "extremely intoxicated" at the time, according to a search warrant.

Borca also told his friends his phone was almost dead at the time. When the call abruptly ended, Borca's friends began to search for him on foot in a heavily wooded area near ponds and marshes.

Borca was reported missing at around 10:50 a.m. Police say his last known whereabouts were in Fort Snelling State Park, near the railroad tracks at the end of Yankee Doodle Road in Eagan.
