Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP2114) and 4 other sources
Daniel James Angel, a 50-year-old man, was last seen in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, on November 15, 2004. He was a white male with brown hair and blue eyes, stood at 6 feet tall, and weighed approximately 220 pounds. Very few details are available regarding the specific circumstances of what led to his disappearance, and he has not been heard from since the day he went missing. The Kootenai County Sheriff's Office is the investigating agency for this case, which remains unresolved.

The evening he was last seen, it was after 11:30 p.m. In the time following his disappearance, a significant discovery was made that offered a few more clues but no concrete answers. His vehicle was located at the Bayview Resort, a detail that suggested his movements prior to vanishing. More unsettling was the discovery of his boat, found adrift near Cape Horn Point on Lake Pend Oreille. This finding painted a concerning picture of his last known activities and whereabouts.

Inside the drifting boat, investigators found several of Daniel's personal belongings, including his wallet and cellphone, which had been left on the dashboard. An examination of the boat revealed that the key was in the on position, the gas tank was empty, and the battery was dead. These details have led to the presumption that he may have drowned, though this has not been definitively proven. The case is classified as an endangered missing person case, a reflection of the serious and potentially life-threatening circumstances surrounding his disappearance. His case is listed in national databases for missing persons, a continuing effort to gather any information that might lead to answers.
