Phu Tan Nguyen was 21 when he was last seen in Raleigh, North Carolina, on February 6, 1996. Described as an Asian male between 5 feet 5 inches and 5 feet 10 inches, 130 to 170 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes, he was wearing a burgundy Tommy Hilfiger crew-neck sweatshirt when he disappeared. The Raleigh Police Department opened an investigation on February 10, 1996.

This is not a straightforward missing-person case. Authorities say Phu is wanted in the fatal shooting of 22-year-old Toai Tan Nguyen, allegedly after an argument inside a restaurant that ended with Toai being shot outside in front of witnesses. Phu reportedly fled and was last thought to be in Alabama; occasional tips over the years, including one placing him on a shrimp boat in Alabama, did not locate him. A federal Unlawful Flight to Avoid Prosecution warrant was issued for Phu on March 21, 1996.

Does anyone have information about Phu’s whereabouts around February 1996 or leads that were not reported to investigators?
