FBI investigates disappearance of Cuban truck driver heading to Miami

A Cuban truck driver who picked up his load in Georgia and was on his way to South Florida vanished, and now, the FBI is asking the public’s help in finding him.

Federal agents with the FBI’s Tampa Division are investigating the “suspicious disappearance” of a Cuban-born truck driver identified as Alejandro Jacomino González.

According to investigators, on April 16 the driver, who works for a transportation company, picked up his cargo at the Port of Brunswick and set out for Miami, where he was scheduled to deliver the vehicles.

What we know so far

The agency said that around 1:21 a.m., González stopped in Brevard County, Florida, where he rested for several hours. The truck’s GPS later showed the vehicle “traveled one exit south and then turned north toward Jacksonville, Florida” at about 7:49 a.m.

He stopped responding

“Shortly after, González stopped responding and the truck was reported missing,” the FBI said.

Authorities later located the truck in Port Wentworth, Georgia, but the driver was not there — and neither were several of the vehicles, the agency said.

“Since the truck was found, three of the vehicles have been recovered in Florida. Others remain missing, along with González,” officials added.

Description of the missing driver

The FBI shared a flyer with González’s photo and physical description.

He is described as a white Hispanic man with brown eyes, bald, with a beard and mustache. He is 5 feet 11 inches tall and weighs 200 pounds. Investigators said González has “a full sleeve tattoo on his left arm, another tattoo on his right forearm, and a tattoo of the word ‘Elisia’ on his right forearm.”

FBI asks public for help

The FBI is asking anyone with photos or video who may have been in or near the Brevard County rest area in Grant-Valkaria, Florida, between 1:00 a.m. and 8:00 a.m. on Friday, April 17, 2026 — especially in the southern part of the rest stop, near the ramp that reconnects to I-95 South — to share what they have.

Those with images can submit them directly to the FBI through an online form.
