Gaudencio Carbajal, known as Lencho, was 38 when he vanished from his Phoenix home in the spring of 1999. He was last seen at his residence near 2200 North 47th Drive on March 17, 1999, wearing a long-sleeve beige button-down shirt, khaki pants, and size 9 black athletic shoes. Family members said he might be lost and confused, and he lived with paranoid schizophrenia.

Carbajal is described as a Hispanic male with brown hair and brown eyes, standing between 5 feet 6 inches and 5 feet 8 inches and weighing 260 to 270 pounds. Distinguishing marks include two missing upper front teeth, two pink oval burn marks about the size of a silver dollar on both wrists, and a tiny mark the size of a pen point on his right eyelid. The Phoenix Police Department is handling the investigation under case number 90460315, and his information is in national missing persons databases.

Few other details about his movements after March 17 are available. If anyone remembers seeing Gaudencio or has information about his whereabouts, please contact the Phoenix Police Department.
