His red four-door Chevrolet Silverado extended cab pickup truck is also missing. The truck has dual exhaust and a metal toolbox and a red and white four-wheel ATV in the back. Davcev had just purchased it, so it may have had either paper license plates or improper ones. The truck's vehicle identification number (VIN) is 2GCEK19K4S1215737.
Davcev has not reported for work since he went missing, and his loved ones say this is extremely uncharacteristic of him.
Three days after his disappearance, an acquaintance of his, Agasi Madoyan, was captured on surveillance tape at a gas station in Avondale, Arizona using Davcev's ATM card to withdraw money from the bank.
A photograph of Madoyan is shown with this case summary. After completing the transaction, he drove away from that location in a pickup truck matching the description of Davcev's vehicle. Since then, the ATM card has been used at over thirty locations, including Las Vegas, Nevada. It is not known under what circumstances Madoyan got the card.
Davcev is missing under unknown circumstances. Foul play may have been involved in his disappearance.

September 2021 updates and sources
A missing person is a person who has disappeared and whose status as alive or dead cannot be confirmed as their location and condition are not known. A person may go missing through a voluntary disappearance, or else due to an accident, crime, death in a location where they cannot be found (such as at sea), or many other reasons. In most parts of the world, a missing person will usually be found quickly. While criminal abductions are some of the most widely reported missing person cases, these account for only 2�5% of missing children in Europe.
By contrast, some missing person cases remain unresolved for many years. Laws related to these cases are often complex since, in many jurisdictions, relatives and third parties may not deal with a person's assets until their death is considered proven by law and a formal death certificate issued. The situation, uncertainties, and lack of closure or a funeral resulting when a person goes missing may be extremely painful with long-lasting effects on family and friends.
Several organizations seek to connect, share best practices, and disseminate information and imAge at the time of disappearance: s of missing children to improve the effectiveness of missing children investigations, including the International Commission on Missing Persons, the International Centre for Missing & Exploited Children (ICMEC), as well as national organizations, including the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children in the US, Missing People in the UK, Child Focus in Belgium, and The Smile of the Child in Greece.
