Overview
- Four members of the Pelcastre Magallanes family vanished on July 4 after last being seen on Boulevard Bellas Artes in Tijuana’s Ciudad Industrial neighborhood near their father’s workplace at an industrial trailer yard.
- The Fiscalía General del Estado has ruled out abduction after no ransom demands were received and is treating the case as a voluntary disappearance while pursuing multiple lines of inquiry.
- Authorities provided detailed physical descriptions and distinguishing marks for Christian Daniel Pelcastre Abarca, Dulce María Magallanes Cardoso, and their sons to assist public recognition.
- A family member’s Facebook post accused kidnappers of abducting the parents and two siblings, but the FGE maintains its focus on leads beyond a kidnapping scenario.
- Residents with any information on the family’s whereabouts are urged to call the Tijuana hotline at (664) 683-9643, dial 911 or use the anonymous tip line 089.
