Carlos Enrique Pena Romero was 32 when he was last seen crossing the U.S.-Mexico border at Nogales, Arizona, on February 1, 2010. A Hispanic male with brown hair and distinctive honey-colored eyes, he was reported between 5 feet 7 inches and 5 feet 9 inches tall and 158 to 178 pounds, with a recent cut and scar on his left eyebrow.

He was wearing multiple layers that day: a white shirt with figures of workers, faded jeans, gray pants, a blue zipper jacket, a gray sweater with USA in blue, a royal blue goose-down sweater with a line, a light blue jacket, and another royal blue lined jacket. He wore short light brown boots, size 8 1/2, and carried a belt with a horse buckle, a brown backpack, and a royal blue cap with a white star and the word cowboys.

The exact circumstances of his disappearance during that border crossing remain unclear. His case is logged with the Pima County Medical Examiner’s Office and in national missing persons databases, and there have been no significant public updates. Does anyone with knowledge of border-area crossings near Nogales in February 2010 or who recognizes that clothing have information to share?
