In the autumn of 1987, 36-year-old Robert Louis Arcaris vanished from Las Vegas, Nevada, leaving behind a mysterious and unresolved case. On October 12, 1987, Arcaris was reportedly boating on Lake Mead, a vast reservoir just east of the city. He was never seen or heard from again after that day. At the time of his disappearance, he was described as a white male, standing at 5'10" and weighing around 140 pounds, with brown hair and hazel eyes. Distinctive marks included scars on his forehead, right cheek, and near his right eye. The investigation into his disappearance was complicated by the fact that Arcaris was known to use several aliases, including Robert Lee Harrison, Robert Lyons, Louis Robert Meyers, and Louis Myers. The circumstances surrounding Robert Arcaris's disappearance remain murky, with very few details available to the public. Authorities from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department have investigated his case, but the passage of time has not brought any definitive answers. One theory that has emerged is the possibility of foul play. Some investigators believe he may have been the victim of a homicide that occurred in the vicinity of Lake Mead around the time he went missing. However, no concrete evidence has surfaced to substantiate this theory, leaving his case open and unsolved. The official report indicates that Arcaris had no vehicle available to him at the time of his disappearance. The lack of personal transportation adds another layer of complexity to understanding his last movements. The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department continues to list him as a missing person in their cold case files, hoping that new information might one day shed light on what happened to him. The overview of the case is one of a man who went out for a day of boating and seemingly vanished without a trace, leaving his family and investigators with lingering questions and a case that has grown cold over the decades.
