Texas 19-year-old Camila Mendoza Olmos vanishes outside her home on Christmas Eve

A search operation is actively ongoing in Texas as authorities look for a 19-year-old woman who vanished on Christmas Eve after her usual morning walk, according to police reports.

Camila Mendoza Olmos was last observed departing from her home in the 11000 block of Caspian Spring in San Antonio at approximately 6:58 a.m. on Wednesday, as per the Bexar County Sheriff’s Office.

“Camila’s mother noted that her daughter typically takes a morning stroll, but grew worried when she didn’t return within the expected time frame,” the Sheriff’s Office reported.

Officials mentioned, “Surveillance footage from that period captures an individual, presumably Camila, rummaging through her vehicle for something unidentified. The video concludes shortly after. It’s assumed she left on foot since her vehicle was left behind. The only known items she had with her were her car key and potentially her driver’s license.”

Her mother, Rosario Olmos, shared with KENS5, “I tried calling her cell phone, but it was left on the bed, switched off.”

“I put it to charge and went out to look for her. I thought I would find her like other times, walking, and we would come home together,” she said. 

“I only ask God to please bring her back home,” Rosario Olmos added. “Bring her back to me.”

Camila’s family members and more than 100 other people have searched for her in the area, according to KSAT. 

“It’s been real hard,” her father, Alfonso Mendoza, told the station. 

The Bexar County Sheriff’s Office described Camila Mendoza Olmos as being around 5-feet 4-inches tall, weighing around 110 pounds.

She was last seen wearing a baby blue and black hoodie, baby blue pajama bottoms and white shoes, authorities added.
