Orlando Jose Garcia Fernandez was 19 when he disappeared in June 2006 while attempting to cross into Arizona from Tijuana. He made a final phone call from Tijuana saying he planned to cross the border. He was reportedly traveling with at least one other person and a human smuggler driving a red truck.

Orlando is described as a Hispanic male with black hair and brown eyes, between 5 feet 8 inches and 6 feet 0 inches tall, about 170 pounds. Distinguishing marks include a scar on his right palm, a scar on the back of his head, and a roughly five-inch colorful tattoo of a dog on his left thigh. He was believed to be wearing size 10 shoes and carrying documents when last seen. The Pima County Sheriff’s Department is investigating.

Anyone who knew Orlando, his travel companions, or the smuggler driving the red truck is asked to come forward with information.
