Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP99158) and 1 other source
Hiban Lara-Navarro, a 46-year-old Hispanic man, was last seen on October 5, 2011, after wandering away from an assisted living facility in Los Angeles, California. At the time of his disappearance, Lara-Navarro was wearing a green sweatshirt and blue jeans. He stood about 5'9" and weighed 180 pounds, with graying brown hair and brown eyes. He had a distinctive tattoo of a female figure on his arm.

Lara-Navarro's case became more concerning when he was arrested in Hawthorne, California, in December 2012. After his release, he disappeared again, and there has been no sign of him since. He is known to use various aliases, including Damian Campos, Juan Campos, Ivan Navarro, and Damian Lopez Campos, complicating the search efforts.

Authorities have little information about his whereabouts or what might have happened to him. The case remains open, with the Los Angeles Police Department continuing to seek tips that could shed light on his disappearance.
