Omar Reyes Lopez was a 19-year-old migrant from Hidalgo, Mexico who was last seen on November 10, 2021, near Fort Hancock, Texas. He was traveling with a group through the desert when he became separated from the others. Known to have vision problems and a learning disability, the journey would have been especially difficult for him.

His family reported him missing after he failed to make contact, and they feared he had become lost in the harsh desert conditions. In December 2021 Mexican authorities located remains believed to be his near the Chihuahuan desert, a region with documented cartel activity and frequent migrant disappearances. His family, local authorities, and human rights groups had worked to bring attention to his case.

Does anyone have information about Omar’s movements around November 10, 2021, or recall seeing a young man matching his description near Fort Hancock or the wider Chihuahuan desert region?
