Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP89073) and 1 other source
Jose Tellez, a 76-year-old man, was last seen leaving his home in San Antonio, Texas, on October 3, 2007. He never returned, and his disappearance remains unresolved. Tellez was described as a Hispanic male, about 5'6" tall, weighing around 150 pounds, with gray or partially gray hair. At the time of his disappearance, no indications of foul play were immediately noted, but he has not been heard from since, leading authorities to classify his case as endangered.

Tellez's family and the authorities have struggled to gather further information about his whereabouts. Despite efforts to locate him, including registering his case in missing persons databases like NamUs, no significant leads have emerged over the years. His case is still open, and any new information could be crucial to solving this mystery. His family continues to seek closure, hoping for any developments that could shed light on what happened to him.
