Miguel Lopez Martinez was 57 when he was last seen in Lukeville, Arizona, on August 31, 2011. He was reportedly in the process of crossing the U.S./Mexico border when he vanished. At the time he disappeared he wore a brown cotton shirt, black dress pants with a black belt, brown leather shoes with black socks, and a chrome watch. He was carrying precious photos of small children.

Miguel is described as having dark hair and eyes and a distinctive growth on his left shoulder about four centimeters in diameter. The Pima County Medical Examiner’s Office is listed as the investigating agency. The Sonoran Desert’s terrain and weather are noted as hazards that have contributed to many recoveries remaining unresolved.

Miguel’s family continues to wait for answers. If anyone saw Miguel in Lukeville around August 31, 2011, or has information about a man matching this description, please share what is known with investigators.
