Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP16722) and 2 other sources
In March of 2011, a 42-year-old man named Eleazar Ramirez Hernandez disappeared near Sasabe, Arizona. A Hispanic male, he was approximately 5'10' to 6'0' tall and weighed between 180 and 190 pounds. He had brown hair and brown eyes, with a distinguishing feature of small black marks on his forehead near his hairline. At the time he went missing, he was wearing a white polyester shirt with horizontal gray stripes, dark blue jeans, a black sweatshirt or jacket without a hood, white socks, and brown boots. He also had on a brown imitation crocodile leather belt with an oval buckle and was in possession of a leather wallet and a black plastic Casio watch. The last known information about his whereabouts is that he was seen crossing the U.S.-Mexico border.

The circumstances surrounding Eleazar Ramirez Hernandez's disappearance remain uncertain, with the primary detail being his last sighting as he crossed the border. The Pima County Medical Examiner's Office is the investigating agency for his case. His case was officially created in the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System in July of 2012, with the report date listed as April 25, 2011. There is little public information available detailing the specific events of the day he was last seen or what may have led to his disappearance.

The case of Eleazar Ramirez Hernandez is one of many unresolved missing person cases in the border region of Arizona. The lack of detailed public information highlights the difficulties often faced in such cases, where individuals can vanish with few traces. For his family and community, the absence of answers leaves a painful void. The investigation, logged under agency case number FSC MPR 1839, remains open, a quiet but persistent effort to uncover what happened to Eleazar Ramirez Hernandez after he was last seen on that March day in 2011.
