Mason Gomez, 19, was reported missing from his Baltimore neighborhood on February 13, 2016. Family and friends described him as dedicated and caring; his sudden disappearance prompted immediate concern because he was known for regular contacts with family and friends.

Local authorities and the community mounted a search in the days after he went missing. Law enforcement used K-9 units and coordinated searches with volunteers. Detectives interviewed family, friends and acquaintances to reconstruct Mason’s last known activities, while his family distributed flyers and used social media and public appeals to raise awareness.

Despite those efforts and media attention, the investigation had not produced substantial leads and Mason’s whereabouts remained unknown, leaving his family distressed and determined to keep the case active. If anyone knew Mason, saw him around Baltimore in February 2016, or has information that wasn’t previously shared with investigators, please come forward.
