According to a missing person alert from the Bexar County Sheriff’s Office, Camila Mendoza Olmos was last seen leaving her family’s home in the 11000 block of Caspian Spring in northwest Bexar County, Texas, around 6:58 a.m. on Dec. 24.
Security camera footage from a neighbor’s house shows someone believed to be Olmos searching inside her vehicle before the video ends. Authorities believe she left the residence on foot, as her car was left in her driveway.
The sheriff’s office said the only items believed to be on her person were her car key and possibly her driver’s license. Olmos’ mother told authorities that her daughter normally goes for a morning walk but became concerned when she did not return within a reasonable period of time, according to the sheriff’s office.
The sheriff’s office describes Olmos as 5 feet 4 inches tall and weighing approximately 110 pounds. At the time she was last seen, she was wearing a baby blue and black hoodie, baby blue pajama bottoms, and white shoes, according to the missing person alert.
Olmos disappeared from her family’s home in northwest Bexar County early on Christmas Eve. The search gained widespread attention when the sheriff announced that investigators believe she may be in “imminent danger,” a warning that heightened the urgency of the case.
The family’s residence is located in a residential area of northwest Bexar County, characterized by family homes and adjacent greenbelts. Law enforcement has urged neighbors to review surveillance footage from the morning of Dec. 24 for any potential clues.
Bexar County, which includes San Antonio and nearby suburbs, occupies a strategic crossroads at the intersection of Interstates 10, 35, and Loop 1604. This dense network of highways is often likened to a “wagon wheel” for its wagon wheel shape on the map. San Antonio International Airport is just 20 miles from northwest Bexar County, further expanding access in and out of the region.
Authorities are considering expanding the investigation beyond the area and are asking anyone with information to contact the Bexar County Sheriff’s Office at (210) 335-6000 or [email protected]
