Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP53528) and 3 other sources
Werner Jonathan Torres Tzun, a 21-year-old migrant from Guatemala, was last seen on May 3, 2018. He is believed to have crossed the Rio Grande River near McAllen, Texas, while attempting to enter the United States illegally. Torres Tzun has not been heard from since that day, and few details are available regarding the exact circumstances of his disappearance.

At the time of his disappearance, Werner was carrying a black backpack and his Guatemalan national identification card. He was described as standing between 5'4" and 5'6" and weighing around 120 pounds. His last known clothing included black boots with straps. His case has been classified as that of a missing migrant, and there has been little progress in locating him.

Authorities continue to search for information regarding his whereabouts, and anyone with relevant details is encouraged to contact the Hidalgo County Sheriff's Office. His case remains open and unsolved.
