Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP433) and 1 other source
In the early morning hours of July 27, 2003, a 22-year-old man named Michael Paul Bazan vanished from Phoenix, Arizona. He was last seen at approximately 2:00 a.m. leaving a party located in the vicinity of the 19000 block of North 3rd Street. Reports indicate that Michael was upset and intoxicated at the time of his departure. At the time he went missing, he was wearing blue jeans but had no shirt on. Distinctive features that could aid in his identification include a tattoo of the word 'HOSTILE' on the back of his neck and a tattoo of his vertebrae in red and blue ink down his back.

Michael's disappearance was marked by a lack of immediate leads. Shortly before he went missing, he had been released from jail and was on probation. He did not possess a valid driver's license or any credit cards, which would have made tracking his movements more difficult. His family and the Phoenix Police Department grew increasingly concerned for his welfare as days turned into weeks with no contact. The Phoenix Police Department's Missing Persons Unit has been handling the investigation into his disappearance.

The case of Michael Bazan has remained unsolved for many years, leaving his family with unanswered questions. Despite the passage of time, law enforcement continues to seek information that could shed light on what happened to him after he left the party that night. The circumstances of his disappearance, including his emotional state and lack of resources, have led to his classification as an endangered missing person. The investigation has involved collecting DNA samples from family members to be entered into national databases in the hope of a future match. The overview of this case is one of a young man who disappeared under concerning circumstances, with very few details available to the public. His case remains an active investigation, with the hope that someone will come forward with the information needed to bring closure to his loved ones.
