Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP11998) and 1 other source
In the summer of 2001, a 26-year-old man named Milton Flores vanished from his home in Brentwood, New York. He was last seen on July 22 of that year. At the time of his disappearance, Flores was described as being 5'7' tall and weighing approximately 140 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. The circumstances surrounding what happened to him are scarce, and he seemed to have disappeared without a trace. The official report of his disappearance was filed with the Suffolk County Police Department.

For years, the investigation into Milton Flores's whereabouts yielded very little information. His case was officially entered into the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System on August 16, 2011, a decade after he was last seen. Despite this step, which aimed to bring wider visibility to his case, no significant leads or new evidence have emerged over the years. Information regarding his activities on the day he went missing, or anyone he may have been with, has not been made public, leaving his family and community with unanswered questions.

The disappearance of Milton Flores remains an unsolved cold case. With no confirmed sightings or substantial evidence to indicate what may have happened to him, his case has grown cold over the two decades since he was last seen. The Suffolk County Police Department continues to hold the case file, number 01-400043, should any new information come to light. The lack of details surrounding his disappearance has made it a difficult case to solve, leaving a lingering sense of uncertainty for all who knew him.
