Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP52200) and 4 other sources
Ramon Antonio Capellan, age 34, was last seen on March 16, 1986, in Miami, Florida. He informed his wife that he was planning a business trip to Cancun, Mexico, but it remains unclear whether he ever made it to his destination. Capellan, who worked in the information technology industry, disappeared without a trace, and no further contact has been made with him since that day.

Capellan, originally from the Dominican Republic, had no history of prior disappearances, and his case has puzzled authorities for decades. His vehicle and personal items were not found, adding to the mystery. At the time of his disappearance, Capellan was described as a Hispanic male, about 5'10" and 170 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. It is possible he was wearing a gold bracelet engraved with "Ramon."

Despite ongoing efforts by law enforcement, very few details have surfaced in Capellan’s case, and it remains an unsolved missing person investigation. Authorities continue to seek any information that could lead to developments in this decades-old case.

If you have any information, Miami-Dade Police Department is still actively investigating.

Last Seen: Mar 16, 1986
