Case Description

Any updates on this case? Let us know!
Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP25242) and 3 other sources
Rosalio Salas Jr., a 31-year-old man from Anaheim, California, was last seen on May 15, 1992. Standing 5'5" tall and weighing 165 pounds, Salas had black hair and brown eyes. Notably, one of his legs was shorter than the other, and he was wearing a mustache at the time of his disappearance. Salas vanished under unknown circumstances, and there have been no confirmed sightings or developments in his case since that day.

Despite thorough investigations by local law enforcement, including the Anaheim Police Department, little information has surfaced to explain his disappearance. His case remains classified as missing, with no solid leads. Authorities continue to encourage anyone with information to come forward to help resolve this long-standing mystery.

Salas’s case is still actively listed in missing persons databases, where officials hope new information might eventually shed light on his disappearance.
