Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP58321)
Luis Bautista-Santos, a 28-year-old male, was last seen on February 17, 2017, in Fort Worth, Texas. On the night of his disappearance, Bautista-Santos had been at the El Huatulco Karaoke Bar on Pecos Street. After spending time there, he decided to leave on his own and head home, as he lived nearby. However, he has not been seen since that evening, and concerns arose when he did not show up for work after the incident.

Bautista-Santos did not carry any identification at the time of his disappearance, and he was known to have limited English skills, having moved from Zacatecas, Mexico. His case remains unsolved, and authorities continue to search for information that could shed light on what happened. Investigators have urged anyone with knowledge about his disappearance to come forward.
