Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP61685)
Antonio Lopez Cotiy, a 22-year-old Guatemalan man, was last seen on June 17, 2019, while traveling between McAllen and Houston, Texas. Antonio had left Guatemala on May 30, 2019, with a group of individuals making their way through Mexico, intending to cross the U.S. border. On June 17, he sent a text to his father, informing him that he had reached McAllen, but was experiencing severe foot pain. Despite this, he expressed his intention to continue walking toward Houston.

However, on June 21, 2019, a fellow traveler from the group contacted Antonio's father with concerning news. The group had to leave Antonio behind because his foot pain made it impossible for him to keep walking. At the time, they were reportedly just two to three hours away from Houston. Unfortunately, no further contact has been made, and efforts to trace his location, including trying to track his phone, have so far been unsuccessful. Antonio’s family and authorities are still seeking any information that could help in locating him. His case remains unresolved.
