Lilburn, Ga., Oct. 23, 2026) – Today marks four years since Selena Garcia was reported missing, and Gwinnett County Police detectives continue to seek answers about her disappearance.

On October 23, 2022, Garcia, who was 24 years old at the time, was reported missing by a family member from a residence on Dickens Terrace in Lilburn. She was known to frequent the Lilburn, Norcross and Buford areas.

Over the past four years, detectives have dedicated countless hours to the investigation, executing numerous search warrants, conducting extensive area searches, speaking with countless individuals and following up on leads. Despite these efforts, detectives have been unable to determine Garcia's whereabouts.

As four years pass without answers, detectives want to ensure Garcia's disappearance is not forgotten. Although numerous investigative leads have reached dead ends, their commitment to finding her remains unchanged. Detectives hope renewed attention to her case will encourage someone with information to come forward.

At the time of her disappearance, Garcia was described as 5 feet, 4 inches tall, weighing approximately 160 pounds, with brown eyes and brown hair. She has several distinctive tattoos, including a marijuana plant on the top of her hand, "503" across the fingers of her right hand and "Maria" on the outside of her wrist.
