Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP19916)
Carlos Marin Chacon, a 24-year-old male, was last seen on June 15, 2011, in the McAllen, Texas area. On that day, he was reportedly crossing the border from Reynosa, Mexico, into Texas. Sometime between June 20 and June 25, a friend informed Chacon's family that he had been left behind during the journey and had possibly passed away on the road. Despite this troubling report, his fate remains unclear, and no official confirmation of his death or whereabouts has been made since his disappearance.

Efforts to locate Carlos have been hindered by the lack of substantial evidence and limited information. His case is listed with organizations that track missing persons, but there have been no significant developments. His family and authorities continue to search for answers, urging anyone with information to come forward. This case remains unresolved, with hopes that future investigations may bring clarity to what happened to Carlos during his attempt to cross the border.
