Trung Ngo disappeared in 2013 after going to meet some friends in Katy. His phone was found but his absence remains a mystery to this day.
23-year-old Trung Quang Ngo told his family that he was going to meet friends on January 15, 2013. He was never heard from again nor was his vehicle found. His phone was found along the road near Fry Road and Franz Road in Katy.
Thirteen years later the missing person case of Trung Ngo remains a mystery.
Trung worked as an electrician and lived with his brother and another roommate. He had plans to meet friends at the Farmington apartment complex near where his cell phone was recovered. Other than his recovered cell phone, Trung and his vehicle, a gunmetal-gray 2004 Nissan Infiniti G35 with a Texas License plate BP2L036, have never been found.
According to authorities, Trung is around 5 feet and 6 inches tall and weighs around 140 pounds. He has black hair and brown eyes. He does have some distinctive tattoos. These include the script “Faith” on his right forearm, “Trung” on his lower left leg and “Ngo” on his arm. He also has a large koi fish tattoo and a chest tattoo of three Japanese warriors with helmets.
While volunteers and authorities heavily searched the area around where his phone was found, no evidence has ever been found and there are no leads in the case.
Foul play is suspected in this case and authorities believe that Ngo was taken against his will.
Anyone with information about Trung Ngo's disappearance is asked to call the Stafford Police Department at 281-261-3950 or Texas EquuSearch at 281-309-9500.
Texas EquuSearch continues to be the leading search and rescue organization in the State having worked over 2,700 cases.
