Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP4452) and 5 other sources
Matthew Glen Anderson, a 30-year-old man, disappeared on June 1, 1996, from Roseville, California. He was last seen near his apartment on South Cirby Way around 7:00 p.m. that evening. Anderson, who was developmentally disabled, left behind all of his personal belongings, including his clothing, when he vanished. On the day of his disappearance, he cashed a check for approximately $400, but no further details about his movements afterward are known.

Anderson is described as a Caucasian male with brown hair and hazel eyes, standing 5'9" and weighing between 115 to 165 pounds. He occasionally wore facial makeup, which was noted as a distinguishing characteristic. His case is classified as endangered missing, and despite multiple efforts, few clues have emerged about his whereabouts since that day. The Roseville Police Department continues to investigate the case, but Anderson’s fate remains unresolved.
