Alfonso Edgar Najera was 40 when he was last heard from on July 8, 2011. He had traveled from his home in Benton County to Everett, Washington, and was staying at a hotel. That Friday he spoke with his wife and said he would return to Kennewick later that evening; that call was the last contact his family had with him.

Najera is described as a Hispanic male, 6 feet 1 inch and about 300 to 310 pounds, with shaved brown hair, brown almond-shaped eyes, a missing front tooth, and eyeglasses with black upper frames and no lower frame. He was thought to be wearing dark loose jogging pants and either a pullover sweatshirt or a polo-type shirt, black Nike running shoes with mid-calf socks, a chunky sterling silver rope-style necklace and a Rado Jubilee watch with a gold frame and band and a black face.

His 2006 Dodge Charger, Washington plate ADS5187, was later found abandoned in a parking lot in Wilsonville, Oregon, which is several hours and across state lines from Everett. The Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office investigated the disappearance, but few public details have been released about the car’s condition or any leads. The circumstances that led to the vehicle being in Oregon and to Najera’s disappearance remain unknown.

If anyone has information about Alfonso’s movements around July 8, 2011, or recall seeing a 2006 Dodge Charger with Washington plates in the Wilsonville area, please come forward.
