Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP52752) and 4 other sources

Patrick Lloyd McDonald, aged 47, was last seen on September 23, 2012, in Stuart, Florida. His family reported him missing on October 4, 2012, after losing contact with him for about two weeks. On October 1, just days before he was officially reported missing, Patrick's car was found abandoned along Interstate 95 in Oakland Park, Florida.

At the time of his disappearance, Patrick was unemployed, and very few details about the circumstances surrounding his case have emerged since then. Despite ongoing investigations, no further information has been uncovered, leaving his case unsolved and open. Authorities continue to encourage public assistance in generating new leads to help find out what happened to Patrick.
