Raul Gonzalez Meraz, 55, was last seen on September 23, 2018, in Houston after leaving his home in the 6200 block of Thrush Drive around 11:00 a.m. to go to work. He never returned. Meraz is described as 5 feet 8 inches, 170 pounds, with black hair and green eyes, and was last seen wearing a green shirt and blue pants.

A troubling detail in the case is that Meraz’s residence was found set on fire after he went missing. Foul play is strongly suspected and the investigation remains active but few additional details have been released. Authorities have urged anyone with information to contact the Houston Police Department.

If anyone knew Raul, saw him on September 23, 2018, or has information about the fire at his home, please share what you know with investigators.
