Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP30169) and 6 other sources
Scott Allen Brown, a 25-year-old man, was last seen on June 12, 1996, in Houston, Texas. He was living at an apartment in the 1300 block of Greens Parkway. Brown was last seen driving a red 1986 Mazda RX7 with Texas plates MSJ05X. Both Brown and his vehicle have been missing ever since, with no confirmed sightings or developments in the case.

His disappearance was not reported until September 9, 1996, nearly three months after he was last seen. Brown has a distinctive tattoo of his name, "Scott," on his right arm. Despite investigations by law enforcement, including the Houston Police Department, no trace of him has been found, and his case remains unsolved. The circumstances of his disappearance are still unclear, and authorities continue to seek any information that could help solve the case.
