(NewsNation) — Officials have issued an alert regarding a teenager last seen on Christmas Eve, suggesting she might be in “imminent danger.”

Camila Mendoza Olmos, aged 19 and hailing from Bexar County, Texas, disappeared after her mother reported she embarked on one of her customary neighborhood walks early Wednesday, Dec. 24. At the time, she was dressed in a black North Face sweater with blue accents, baby blue pajama shorts, and white footwear.

Surveillance footage captured what is believed to be Mendoza Olmos around 7 a.m., seemingly rummaging through her car.

Meanwhile, local authorities have been conducting a ground search in the vicinity.

Investigators say the only items she had on her were her car keys and possibly a driver’s license. She disappeared while on foot, with her vehicle left behind at her home. Her cell phone was also left in her home.

NewsNation Law and Justice Correspondent Jennifer Coffindaffer said the fact that Mendoza Olmos was wearing pajamas and didn’t take her phone are two possible indications that the teen didn’t intend to leave her home beyond a short walk.

“It’s very unusual for someone to go missing at that time in the holiday season,” she said.

Authorities have not released many details about the case, but said that the information they have indicates that Mendoza Olmos could be in danger.

Authorities say they confirmed that Mendoza Olmos, a U.S. citizen, has not been detained by ICE.

Multiple agencies are involved in the search. The sheriff’s office said they have not ruled out anything in the case, including kidnapping, human trafficking or that she could have left of her own accord.

Mendoza Olmos had recently gone through a breakup, but authorities don’t believe that is related, as it was a mutual breakup and everyone has been cooperating with the investigation.

Anyone with information is urged to call the Bexar County Sheriff’s Office at (210) 335-6000 or send information to bcsotips@bexar.org . Callers and tipsters may remain anonymous.
