Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP20289) and 3 other sources
Carlos Omar Anguiano, a 24‑year‑old Hispanic male, disappeared from Immokalee, Florida on **May 21, 2005**, after leaving his residence on North 6th Street and never returning.

At the time of his disappearance, Anguiano worked as a maintenance laborer in the local agricultural community and was known to frequent the El Paso Trail area in Immokalee. He stood approximately **5 ft 6 in**, weighed around **160 lbs**, had brown hair and green eyes, and sported tattoos on his left hand, left forearm, and the inside of his left calf.

On the evening of his disappearance, Carlos was seen wearing a **gray tank top**, pants and **white sneakers with black laces and orange spots on the toes**—a distinctive footwear detail frequently noted in case records.

Minimal additional details have emerged over the years. The Charley Project notes that the case had only a single case file update since its initial filing, with the last known update occurring on April 1, 2006, and the entry was first added in October 2004. The Collier County Sheriff's Office, cited as the primary investigating authority, classifies the case under “Missing Adult Endangered” with case number 05‑17537.

Despite the passage of two decades, very little public information has been released regarding investigative leads or potential sightings. Uncovered and other community‑driven sites reaffirm that Anguiano disappeared on May 21, 2005, in Immokalee, yet no confirmed updates or evidence have been publicly posted since mid‑2000s.

Investigators and community members have emphasized Carlos’s connections to the Immokalee agricultural region and his regular presence in the El Paso Trail area, but no conclusive findings have been made public. Those with any information have traditionally been directed to contact the Collier County Sheriff’s Office regarding case number 05‑17537.
