Cano was reported missing after the front door of his trailer was found open, the trailer a mess, and blood droplets seen various places. His car was still there. He was not answering his cellphone. It is presumed by the San Diego Police Dept. that Cano was a victim of a violent crime. It was extensively investigated, but all leads were exhausted and there is insufficient evidence that he was killed in his trailer or in Mexico, as was reported by one witness.
