Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP66481) and 1 other source
On a summer day in June of 1994, five-year-old Miguel De Vides Gomar, a brown-haired, brown-eyed little boy, was in Juneau, Alaska. He was last seen on June 22, 1994, in the area of the Taku Inlet. At the time of his disappearance, he was described as being approximately 43 inches tall and weighing around 50 pounds. Miguel was dressed for an outing, wearing layers of clothing that included a grey sweatshirt featuring an Eskimo in a sled, a blue and green cotton sweater, and blue and green jogging pants under another pair of black striped nylon jogging pants. On his feet, he wore white cotton socks and black tennis shoes. He was also carrying a camera around his neck and had a red, green, and yellow belt pouch secured around his waist.

The circumstances surrounding Miguel's disappearance are tied to a tragic aircraft accident that occurred in the Taku Inlet. He was a passenger on the aircraft when the incident happened. While the specific details of the accident are not widely publicized, it is known that Miguel went missing as a result of this event. The search and recovery efforts that followed the crash were unable to locate the young boy, leading to him being listed as a missing person. The hope of finding him has sadly dwindled over the many years that have passed since that day.

The case of Miguel De Vides Gomar remains a sorrowful one, a young life lost in an unfortunate accident. The official record from the Alaska State Troopers indicates he is presumed to be deceased due to the nature of the aircraft accident in the Taku Inlet. Despite the passage of time, he is still remembered as a missing child from Alaska. The lack of specific, publicly available details about the crash itself contributes to the vagueness of the information surrounding the exact timeline of events on that day. The overview of the case is a heart-wrenching story of a little boy who vanished during a tragic event, leaving behind an enduring mystery and a family to grieve a loss without closure.

Last Seen: Jun 22, 1994
