Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP20830) and 2 other sources
Robert Coyle, 44, was last seen on August 1, 2010, after being dropped off at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) for a flight to Houston, Texas. He had told his family that he was meeting his girlfriend in Houston and intended to travel with her to Kurdistan to meet her family. His sister, who lived in San Francisco, reported him missing after failing to hear from him. Coyle had previously resided in Clearwater, Florida, before his disappearance.

There has been little information about his movements after being dropped off at the airport, and authorities have not been able to confirm whether he made it to Houston or proceeded with his travel plans. His case remains unsolved, and it is unclear whether foul play or other circumstances contributed to his disappearance.
