Jose Antonio Avila was 34 when he was last seen on June 19, 2019, in Nashville. He had been staying with a cousin on the 100 block of Gatewood Avenue and reportedly drove away to run a short errand in a dark green 2007 Jeep Wrangler, Tennessee plate 9P23X1, but never returned. No confirmed communication, sighting of him, or recovery of the Jeep has been publicly documented.

At the time he disappeared Jose was described as about 5 feet 1 inch tall, 160 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. Records identify him as Jose Antonio Avila, and he was also known as Jose Avila-Zamudio and Arturo Flores. He was not a U.S. citizen, and public information notes a 2017 arrest in Illinois under the name Jose Avila-Zamudio.

Those who knew him said he had been dating a woman who knew him as Arturo Flores and that he had mentioned planning to move out of state, but it is not publicly established whether he left voluntarily or reached another state. The Metropolitan Nashville Police Department is handling the investigation under case number 2019-0490968 and the case is logged in NamUs as MP96671.

Did anyone see a dark green 2007 Jeep Wrangler, Tennessee plate 9P23X1, or Jose Avila (also known as Jose Avila-Zamudio or Arturo Flores) around Nashville or elsewhere after June 19, 2019?
