Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP162985)
In the winter of 2025, a young man named Andrekis Cantu, aged 26, vanished under perplexing circumstances, leaving his loved ones in a state of desperate uncertainty. His last known whereabouts were in South Gate, California, on December 19, 2025. Andrekis, a resident of Texas, had been receiving services in San Antonio before he embarked on a journey to California via a Greyhound bus. His family and friends describe him as a Hispanic male with black hair and brown eyes. He has a tattoo that reads "precise" on his right temple and another of a time clock on his left hand. A significant detail about Andrekis is that he is a paraplegic and uses a wheelchair.

The journey from Texas to California appears to be a pivotal point in his disappearance. After arriving in the Golden State, Andrekis had some interaction with law enforcement in South Gate, though the specifics of this contact are not widely known. Following this encounter, all communication from him ceased. The silence that ensued has been a source of profound worry for those who know him. The abrupt halt in contact is entirely out of character, deepening the mystery surrounding his current situation. His case is being handled by the San Antonio Police Department, given his ties to the city.

The circumstances leading up to and following his trip to California remain largely unclear, creating a narrative with more questions than answers. The lack of new information since December 2025 has been agonizing for his family. Every day that passes without a word from Andrekis adds to their distress. The official investigation continues, with law enforcement piecing together the timeline of his travels and his last known activities in South Gate. The case of Andrekis Cantu is a heart-wrenching story of a young man who traveled a great distance only to disappear, leaving a void in the lives of those who care for him. The primary goal remains to uncover the truth of what happened to him and to bring him home.
