Bonifaciomunoz, 39, stands 6 feet tall and weighs 170 pounds. He has black hair and brown eyes.
“Carols left the scene of the crash before the first responders arrived and contacted a family member in New Jersey who advised that he was allegedly on Spencer Road in the Cotton, WV., area,” according to a news release from the Kanawha County Sheriff’s Office. “Law enforcement has been unable to locate or contact Carlos and he has not been heard from since. Carlos is believed to still be in the Elkview area.

The truck was hauling a flatbed trailer full of lumber.
