Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP29054) and 2 other sources
Juan Bravo, a 26-year-old male, was last seen on June 6, 2012, near Hidalgo, Texas, close to the U.S.-Mexico border. At the time of his disappearance, he was reportedly planning to meet his family in Houston. Juan last communicated with his family in early June, stating that he would arrive in Houston within a week. However, after that communication, his family has not seen or heard from him, and his whereabouts remain unknown.

Juan was described as 5'2" tall, weighing 160 pounds, with black hair. Despite efforts by both local authorities and his family, there have been no significant developments in his case. His disappearance remains unresolved, and it is believed that he may have been near Reynosa, Mexico, around the time he went missing. Authorities continue to appeal for any information that might help bring closure to his case.
