Missing Person Photos
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 unknown. 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 to 5 percent 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.
A number of organizations seek to connect, share best practices, and disseminate information and images 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.
Resources for Missing Persons
According to current statistics, 4,000 people in the United States go missing every day.
Sometimes a child suddenly vanishes from the bus stop or the local park or even from their own yard or bedroom. Or a teenager doesn�t return home after a walk to the neighborhood grocery store or a bike ride or a party with friends.
Other times, an adult is mysteriously absent from their job or neighbors haven�t seen them for several days, and family and friends haven�t heard from them either.

Markings and/or Distinguishing Characteristics Asian male. Black hair, brown eyes. Noah may spell his last name "Noh." His nickname is Mike. He is of Korean descent.
Details of Disappearance Noah was last seen in San Bruno, California at approximately 7:00 p.m. on May 1, 2007. He left his home in his black 2007 Lincoln Town Car, telling his fifteen-year-old son he was going to pick up a customer for his private car service, E-Limousine Services, which he ran out of his home.
Noah did not say who he was picking up or where. He has never been heard from again and his car has not been located. It didn't have any license plates at the time Noah went missing, but it did have the transportation number TCP 18525 printed on the back bumper.
Authorities consider Noah's disappearance suspicious, as he was not having any problems at the time of his disappearance and has no history of leaving without warning. A search of airport parking lots and a street-by-search search of San Bruno turned up no sign of his vehicle.
Noah has two adult children by a previous marriage in addition to his teenage son. He has not been in contact with any of his family members since May 2007, and there is concern for his safety. His remains unsolved.
