Manuel Vaca Cazares was 43 when he was last seen on January 1, 2011, in McAllen, Texas. Public information about his disappearance is sparse; authorities have not resolved the case and it remains open.

His name is listed in state missing persons databases. The McAllen region’s proximity to the U.S.-Mexico border is noted in accounts of the area’s missing persons cases, but there is no public information linking Manuel’s disappearance to cross-border activity or any specific circumstance.
