The Thurston County Sheriff’s Office is seeking the public’s help in locating a 45-year-old Lacey area man who hasn’t been seen since Wednesday.
Marcos A. Sanchez
Marcos A. Sanchez’s Chevrolet Silverado was found last night in a shopping center parking lot off Martin Road in the Hawks Prairie area, according to the sheriff’s office.
He left home about 7 a.m. Wednesday and was last seen about 11:30 a.m. that day in Lacey, according to Lt. Greg Elwin said. Sanchez was reported missing last night.
Sanchez is a construction contractor and his job site on Wednesday was on the Tacoma waterfront, Elwin said.
The truck offered no obvious indications of any foul play, but it has been impounded and detectives were to examine its interior this afternoon, according to Elwin.

“We haven’t found anything odd or peculiar about him or his background,” Elwin said. “He seems like a regular guy with a job and a family, and he just didn’t come home. That in itself makes it kind of concerning.”
Anyone with any information about his whereabouts is asked to call Lt. Elwin at the sheriff’s office at 360-786-5530.

THIS STORY NEEDS TO BE UPDATED. MY HUSBAND IS A CLOSE FRIEND OF MARCOS SANCHEZ AND GREW UP WITH HIM HERE IN LAS VEGAS NEVADA. WHEN WE HEARD NEWS OF HIM MISSING FROM HIS WIFE MY HUSBAND: DARRELL WILLIAMS, AND MARCOS’S TWO OTHER BEST FRIENDS FROM LAS VEGAS: CRIS BARNABY AND RON HATTER, GOT THE FIRST FLIGHT TO SEATTLE. THEY ARRIVED FRIDAY NIGHT AND WENT STRAIGHT TO MARKS HOUSE TO MEET WITH HIS WIFE AND THE DETECTIVES. ABOUT TWO MILES FROM THE SANCHEZ RESIDENCE, THEY NOTICED A MAN ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD STUMBLING, THE TOOK NOTICE BUT DID NOT RECOGNIZE HIM . WHEN THEY ARRIVED AT THE HOUSE THEY SPOKE WITH THE DETECTIVES, ANSWERED QUESTIONS, ECT. THE DETECTIVES LEFT TO CONTINUE THEIR SEARCH AND DARRELL, CRIS, AND RON LEFT TO SEARCH ON THEIR OWN. THEY DECIDED TO GO BACK WHERE THEY SEEN THE STUMBLING MAN. I WAS MARCOS!!! HE WAS INCOHEIRENT AND DID NOT EVEN KNOW WHO THEY WERE. THEY THREW HIOM IN THEIR CAR AND CALLED THE POLICE, AMBULANCE, ECT. AT FIRST IT DID SEEM LIKE HE WAS ON DRUGS OR SOMETHING BUT THIS IS NOT WHAT HAPPENED. MARK HAD A VIRUS ON THE BRAIN WHICH WAS NOT DETECTED UNTIL AFTER NUMEROUS TESTS WHEN HE WAS HOSPITALIZED FRIDAY NIGHT. THE VIRUS CAUSED HIM TO HAVE A CEIZURE IN HIS VEHICLE WHICH THE EVIDENCE OF BLOOD FROM HIM BITTING OF A PIECE OF HIS TOUNGE PROVES, THIS CAUSED KIDNEY FAILURE WHICH MADE HIM INCOHEIRENT AND THEN WENT WANDERING THE STREETS. HE WANDERED HIS NEIGBORHOOD FOR 2 DAYS UNTIL HE WAS FOUND. HE DID NOT KNOW WHERE HE LIVED HE DID NOT KNOW WHO HE WAS. HIS FRIENDS WERE IN LACEY FOR LESS THAN AN HOUR BEFORE THEY FOUND HIM…THAT WAS WHAT THEY CAME THERE TO DO…THIS IS A MIRACLE…HE IS STILL IN THE HOSPITAL BUT DOING BETTER. MARCOS WAS NOT ON DRUGS AND THE STORY SHOULD NOT BE SO MISLEADING AS POSTED IN THE NEWS.
Marcos A. Sanchez’s has been found.
