Chris Daniel Garcia, 33, of Brownsville, Texas, was last seen March 7, 2012. That morning he drove his black Ford F-150 with Texas plates across the Gateway International Bridge into Mexico. U.S. Customs officers had stopped and interviewed him and examined his vehicle for about 35 minutes before allowing him to proceed; after that crossing he vanished and no one has heard from him since.

Garcia is described as 5 feet 7 inches, about 150 pounds, with short dark brown hair and a defective left hand from a prior gunshot injury that left one finger shorter than the others. The case is listed as endangered missing and remains open with the Cameron County Sheriff’s Office.

Does anyone who crossed the Gateway Bridge on March 7, 2012, or who has information about crossings into that area, have details that could help this investigation?
