- On December 23, 2009, a man named Carpenter disappeared. He was last seen at 2:00 PM in San Luis Obispo, California, taking his black Labrador dog, Scooter (Scooter had a bobtail – a short, missing tail), to Laguna Lake Park. He never came back.
Carpenter was driving a gray 1989 Jeep Comanche with a camper shell on the back. The license plate was California 3W27270, and there was a sticker of a Darwin Fish (a fish with legs) on the back.
His Jeep was found about a month later near Fort Hunter Liggett, and Scooter was found near Gorda in Monterey County. Despite big searches, no one knows what happened to Carpenter. The case is still a mystery.
