Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP64405) and 4 other sources
Wayne Moore, 49 years old, was last seen on March 3, 1992, in Pasadena, Texas. Known by his nickname "Buddy," Moore stood 5'9" tall, weighed around 140 pounds, and had green eyes and brown hair. He wore a pacemaker and had a distinctive square-shaped scar on the left side of his chest. On the day of his disappearance, Moore left his residence in his silver 1984 Datsun pickup truck, which had the Texas plate number 9069EV.

Four days after his disappearance, Moore's truck was found abandoned and burned in Harris County, raising suspicions of foul play. Additionally, an unknown handgun was reported missing from his home, and the door to his residence was left open at the time of his disappearance, suggesting unusual circumstances. Despite efforts from authorities, Moore's case remains unsolved, with little new information emerging over the years.

The Pasadena Police Department continues to investigate Moore's case, and anyone with information is encouraged to contact law enforcement to assist in bringing resolution to his family.
