Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP11637) and 2 other sources
In the autumn of 1991, a young man named Carlos Alberto Rodriguez vanished from the town of Roxboro, North Carolina, leaving behind a mystery that has endured for decades. The 19-year-old Hispanic male was last seen on October 1st of that year. At the time he went missing, Carlos was described as having a slender build, standing at approximately 5 feet 7 inches tall and weighing around 145 pounds. He had black hair and brown eyes. His appearance was distinguished by several unique features which his family hoped would make him easily identifiable. These included a notable birthmark on his left hand that gave the appearance of a glove darker than his natural skin tone. He also had a scar on the corner of his left hand from an attempted tattoo removal. Additionally, Carlos had a tattoo of a rose, though its exact location on his upper arm or back is uncertain, and another tattoo of a 'gangster wearing a hat' on one of his arms.

The specific details and circumstances surrounding the day Carlos Alberto Rodriguez disappeared are largely unknown to the public. Information about his activities on October 1, 1991, who he may have been with, or his state of mind at the time has not been widely circulated. This lack of a clear timeline or narrative of his last known movements has presented a significant challenge to those seeking to find him. Over the years, his case has been entered into various missing persons databases, but these efforts have not yet yielded any significant breakthroughs or confirmed sightings. The passage of time has only deepened the void of information, leaving his loved ones and investigators with unanswered questions.

The case of Carlos Alberto Rodriguez is a quiet but persistent one, a story of a young life interrupted without explanation. For more than thirty years, the search for answers has continued, a testament to the hope that one day new information will come to light. The Roxboro Police Department has maintained the open investigation, hoping for a lead that could finally illuminate the path Carlos took after he was last seen. Despite the decades that have passed, the fundamental questions remain: what happened to Carlos, and where has he been? The case is an ongoing and unresolved search for a man who would now be in his early fifties, his disappearance a long-standing and sorrowful mystery in Person County.

Last Seen: Oct 1, 1991
