Robert Anthony McLaughlin, 40, was last seen on November 14, 1986, in Los Angeles County after walking away from his job in Carson, California. He was 6 feet 2 inches and about 250 pounds, with brown hair, brown eyes and noticeable acne scars on his face. On the day he disappeared he wore blue pants, a blue sweater and black shoes.

A reported sighting placed McLaughlin in Sacramento in June 1987, where it was believed he may have been living on the streets, but no subsequent sightings have been confirmed. The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department continues to handle the investigation and the man’s fate is unknown.

If anyone knew Robert, saw him in 1986–1987, or has information about where he might have gone, please contact the Sheriff’s Department.
