Anibal Marin Romero, 32, was last seen on October 3, 2007, in Whittier, California. His girlfriend dropped him off at the intersection of Pioneer and Imperial Highway at about 8:30 a.m.; he stayed in the Norwalk area and made his last known contact at 8:55 p.m. that evening by cell phone. He was reported missing two days later and has not been heard from since.

Anibal is described as a Hispanic male, 5 feet 5 inches to 5 feet 7 inches tall, about 140 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. He has distinctive tattoos on his upper arms, including Chinese writing and an Aztec tribal band. He has medical conditions—diabetes and hypertension—that raise additional concern for his welfare. At the time he vanished he was wearing blue jeans and a black sweater with a gray stripe.

The Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department continues to investigate but few details or significant leads have emerged and the case remains open. If anyone knew Anibal, saw him in Norwalk or Whittier on October 3, 2007, or has information that could help, please contact authorities.
