Could this be Carlos Montoya? The description of the clothing fits:


Carlos Montoya, age 15, was last seen boarding a Greyhound Bus in Macon, Georgia on Monday, August 7th, 2006 and is believed
to have arrived in Houston, Texas. Carlos has not been seen or heard from since. He was last seen wearing a gray t-shirt, blue jean shorts,
and red & black Nike tennis shoes.

Wow, Indigo, awesome catch...but at 140 lbs would he wear a size 40 shorts and XL undies and a 42-44 size belt? But I wonder if maybe he was into the baggy look?

Hi englishleigh,

I definitely think that Carlos would be into the urban hip hop style. From what I can gather, his family thought he was on his way to Texas join a gang. G.H. Bass brand (his denim shorts) would be consistent with this trend also, I believe.

I think you should forward Carlos' info to the Chattanooga PD, Indigo....
