Summary based on 2 sources
Christopher Brownlee Thomson, a 37-year-old man, was last seen in Los Gatos, California on September 1, 1995, and has not been heard from since. At the time of his disappearance, Thomson was described as a white male, 5'9" tall, weighing 160 pounds, with brown hair and hazel eyes. He has a scar on his leg.

Thomson has been diagnosed with schizophrenia and was not taking his required medication at the time he went missing, which has led to his case being classified as "Endangered Missing". This medical condition is a significant concern in his disappearance.

Despite the passage of time, very few details surrounding the circumstances of his disappearance have been made public. The Los Gatos Police Department is the investigating agency for his case. Information about his case has been shared by organizations such as The Charley Project in an effort to generate leads.
