Jose Enrique Solis Altamirano was 21 when he disappeared on January 16, 2003, while attempting to cross from Mexico into the United States near Naco, Arizona. He was last seen at that border location and did not reach his destination, leaving his family with unanswered questions.

Jose is described as between 5 feet 2 inches and 5 feet 4 inches tall, weighing 120 to 140 pounds, with black hair and black eyes. Distinguishing marks include a scar above one knee and a mole on his right cheek. The Pima County Medical Examiner’s Office has his case on file, but public details about that day are sparse and there have been few substantive leads.

The family continues to hope for information that could explain what happened during his crossing. If anyone has knowledge of Jose’s movements around Naco on January 16, 2003, or remembers seeing him, please come forward.
