A report from Crime Stoppers states it is believed she left a family gathering on Southwest Military Drive at 1:30 a.m. and walked in an unknown direction. She was then picked up by an unknown person in a silver or grey car, the report states.

A local school bus driver was previously arrested in the case, but Bexar County court records show the charge was dismissed pending further investigation.

Crime Stoppers is willing to pay up to $5,000 for information leading to an arrest.
