Escobar was last seen at a Wendy's restaurant in the Greenspoint Mall area of Houston, TX. He was with Jose Guadalupe Gonzalez and Silvia Perez. He was driving a 1996 blue or gray Chevrolet Tahoe with TX license plate 'TBZ-77X' or (other sources list the plate number as) "L41DCB". All three disappeared and have not been heard from since. The vehicle was discovered a few days later stripped and abandoned in a wrecking yard in Humble, TX.
