Miguel Angel Ramirez Guevara, 40, was last known to be in the southern Arizona desert in Maricopa County on January 5, 2009. He is described as 5 feet 6 inches, about 114 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. He was last seen wearing blue jeans, a t-shirt, and black shoes. Notable marks include a burn on his upper thigh and a scar running from behind his ear to his jugular.

His disappearance was reported to the Phoenix Police Department and a NamUs file was created on October 17, 2020, more than a decade after he was last seen. Very few details about why he was in the desert or the circumstances of his disappearance have been released; he is classified as an endangered missing person. The delayed report and the remote terrain have complicated the inquiry and left many questions unanswered.

If anyone has information about Miguel’s whereabouts or saw him in or near Maricopa County around January 2009, please share what you know with the Phoenix Police Department.
