Paul David Garcia, born November 6, 1968, was last seen in the spring of 1997 in Chilliwack, British Columbia. He was staying in unit 207 at the Empress Hotel, 9260 Young Road, and disappeared without leaving a clear explanation. Reports say he may have been heading to Vancouver for work, but that theory is undercut by the fact his vehicle and all personal belongings were left behind in Chilliwack.

No contact with family or police occurred after 1997, and his relatives did not file an official missing person report with the Chilliwack RCMP until 2003. The case remains open and unsolved; investigators have not been able to determine what happened or locate definitive information about his whereabouts. It is unknown whether he left intentionally or something else occurred.

If anyone has information about Paul, his movements in 1997, or his time in Chilliwack or Vancouver, please share what you know with the Chilliwack RCMP.
