Josue Cruz Roman was 20 when he disappeared on August 21, 2011, while crossing the U.S.-Mexico border near San Luis, Arizona, with his father. The moment and reason they became separated are unclear; family statements emphasize unanswered questions and ongoing grief.

At the time he vanished, Josue was described as a Hispanic male, 5 feet 6 inches to 5 feet 7 inches tall, about 200 pounds, with brown hair, brown eyes and a cloudy left eye. Distinctive marks included tattoos reading Aralezi (right elbow to hand), M and A (left elbow to hand), Guadalupe (middle of his back), a right ear piercing and a three-centimeter scar above his right eye. He was last seen wearing a light grey short-sleeved Arizona Cardinals t-shirt, size 34 light blue jeans, a two-sided Nautica windbreaker (light grey on one side, red and white on the other), grey and black Jordan tennis shoes, a green camouflage hat, and carrying a Southpole backpack. A bus ticket in his name for Transporte del Norte de Sonora from Distrito Federal to San Luis Rio Colorado was among his belongings.

Did anyone in the San Luis or transit communities in 2011 see Josue or recall that route or those belongings?
