Haunting final image of 19-year-old who vanished on Christmas Eve in Texas human trafficking hotspot

A neighbor’s security camera captured the last known sighting of Camila Mendoza Olmos, a 19-year-old missing woman who disappeared on Christmas Eve in Texas.

Camila was last seen at 6:58 a.m. after leaving her home in northwest Bexar County, on the outskirts of San Antonio. Authorities have previously flagged the area as a possible human-trafficking corridor.

Video shared by local media shows a person believed to be Camila standing near her car with the lights on. Investigators say she appeared to look inside the vehicle for something, then the footage ends.

Her car was still parked at the house, leading deputies to believe she may have left on foot. Loved ones say she often takes a morning walk, but always brings her phone. This time, her phone was reportedly turned off and left in her bedroom. Officials believe she may have had only her keys and possibly her driver’s license.

A CLEAR Alert has been issued as volunteers joined the search.

Description (per deputies):

  • Height: 5’4″
  • Weight: about 110 lbs
  • Clothing: baby blue and black hoodie, baby blue pajama bottoms, white shoes

Authorities have not confirmed foul play, but the lack of sightings has increased concern. Family members are urging anyone with information to contact local law enforcement immediately.
