Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP76873) and 5 other sources
Phillip Seth Perez, a 45-year-old man, was last seen on May 23, 2019, in Abilene, Texas. On that day, he clocked out of his shift at Taco Bueno, located on North Judge Ely Boulevard, and has not been seen since. Perez was reported missing by his family after he failed to return home, and the Abilene Police Department initiated a public search for him in early June of that year. At the time of his disappearance, Perez was described as 5'6" tall, weighing between 180 and 200 pounds, with gray or partially gray hair and brown eyes.

Authorities have not provided any updates or leads in Perez's case since his disappearance, and it remains unresolved. No foul play has been confirmed, but his family and law enforcement have continued to search for answers. Perez's disappearance has garnered attention from various missing persons organizations, including NamUs, which continues to list him as a missing person. Despite the passage of time, there is still hope that someone may come forward with information that could help bring resolution to his case.
