Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP15019) and 4 other sources
Hans Harry Okelsrud, 31 years old, was last seen on October 18, 2000, in San Dimas, California. On that day, he left home for work, but he never returned, and he has not been heard from since. At the time of his disappearance, Hans was described as a white male with brown hair and brown eyes, standing 5'11" tall and weighing around 185 pounds. He was wearing a black shirt, blue jeans, and black shoes when he was last seen.

Despite an investigation, there are very few details available about the circumstances of his disappearance. Hans had no known distinguishing marks or aliases. Law enforcement, including the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, has been involved in the search for answers, but his case remains unsolved.

His case is listed in multiple missing person databases, including NamUs and the Doe Network, and his dental records, fingerprints, and DNA have been collected, but no significant leads have emerged. Authorities continue to seek information from anyone who may have insight into what happened to him.
