Meaning of missing person
The following is the definition of missing person according to Wikipedia.
A missing person is a person who has disappeared and whose status as alive or dead cannot be confirmed as his or her location and fate are not known.
I pretty much think it's a clear, straight forward easy to understand definition and therefore i don't have to explain the meaning of missing person over again.

Did you know that 93% of the people who get lost and are reported to the relevant authorities never return home?
This is probably due to lack of proper organization within rescue teams doing the searches or inability to cover a wide geographical area during rescue searches.
According to global statistics, 607 people go missing every single day, without a trace. Over a year, this number totals 221,644 missing individuals. This means that approximately 4,432,880 have gone missing in the past 20 years.
Apart from people missing, many pets are also reported missing.
Statistics suggest that 4 million dogs in the United States are lost each year.

OTHER FACTS ABOUT MISSING PERSONS
Below are other interesting facts about missing persons I came across while doing my research. They are more than 40 but I only picked 6 general facts.
In most jurisdictions, missing persons cases receive low priority. Authorities are already working homicides, robberies, rapes, assaults, traffic issues, and crime prevention.
Minorities, those who suffer from mental disorders, and substance abusers who go missing often receive little attention from authorities and little sympathy from the press or public.
It is estimated that nearly 800,000 children will be reported lost each year in the U.S; 40,000 children go missing each year in Brazil; 50,500 in Canada; 39,000 in France; 100,000 in Germany; and 45,000 in Mexico. An estimated 230,000 children go missing in the U.K. each year, or one child every 5 minutes.
In most of the developing world—including Africa, Asia, and Latin America—no one is counting missing children. Additionally, there are no specific laws on missing children, no established protocol, and no central missing child registries.
When a child goes missing, the first 3 hours are the most crucial in finding the child safely. Approximately 76.2% of abducted children who are murdered are dead within three hours of the abduction.
It can take over 2 hours to get information about a missing child from a panicked parent.
