Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP22130) and 2 other sources
Oscar Ivan Abad, 37, was last seen on January 10, 1989, in Miami, Florida. At the time of his disappearance, Abad stood 5'3" tall, weighed approximately 150 pounds, and had distinguishing characteristics, including blond hair, blue eyes, a scar on the lower right side of his abdomen, and a red birthmark on the top of his head.

Abad's ex-wife reported him missing several months after his last sighting, as she had not heard from him in a considerable amount of time. Despite this delayed report, the circumstances surrounding his disappearance remain largely unknown, and there have been no significant developments or clues in the decades since he vanished. His case remains unsolved, and authorities continue to encourage anyone with information to come forward.

This long-standing cold case has been particularly difficult for investigators due to the lack of clear evidence or leads, making it a mystery that continues to trouble both his family and law enforcement to this day.

Last Seen: Jan 10, 1989
