On January 15, 2026, 19-year-old Michael Martin Coronado, also known as "Chino," left his home in Houston, Texas, and has not been seen or heard from since. The circumstances surrounding his disappearance are unsettlingly brief; he simply left home and vanished. At the time he went missing, he was wearing a black hoodie, black sweatpants, and black Crocs, and was carrying a black backpack.
His case was officially reported to the Harris County Constable, Precinct 4, the following day, January 16, 2026.
Michael is described as a Hispanic and White/Caucasian male, standing at 5 feet 8 inches tall and weighing around 150 pounds. He has brown hair and brown eyes. A distinguishing feature is a scar on his upper right shoulder. The lack of information regarding his state of mind, his plans, or any potential reasons for his departure has left his family and investigators with a painful void. Despite the passage of time, there have been no significant updates or leads publicly released that would indicate his whereabouts or the cause of his disappearance.
The investigation into Michael Coronado's disappearance remains open. The official report was filed with the Harris County Constable, Precinct 4, under agency case number 2601-02049. The case was also entered into the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System as case number MP158503 nearly four months after he was last seen, on May 11, 2026. The silence in his case is a heavy one, leaving a community and a family anxiously awaiting any piece of information that might bring him home. The overview of the case remains one of a sudden and unexplained absence, a young man who walked out of his home and into a mystery that continues to endure.Last Seen: Jan 15, 2026
