Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP54586) and 6 other sources
Jason Alen Brice, a 52-year-old man from Santa Clarita, California, was last seen on January 16, 2018. He had taken a four-day vacation from his job at the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) and contacted his boss by phone on January 16. After that call, he disappeared and has not been heard from since. Brice, a U.S. Army veteran, was last seen leaving his place of work in Saugus, California, on January 10, but he did not return to work as scheduled following his vacation.

At the time of his disappearance, Brice was described as standing 5'11", weighing approximately 320 pounds, with grayish-brown hair and blue eyes. Authorities, including the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, have conducted searches in the Angeles National Forest and other areas, but no significant leads have emerged. His case remains unsolved, and he is still classified as a missing person.

Investigators and his family continue to seek information, and anyone with details that might assist in locating Jason is urged to contact the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department.
