SALINAS, Calif. (KION-TV)- Salinas Police are looking for a woman who went missing from her Salinas home Thursday morning.

SMH. It's worrisome and scary that her family said her car and her phone were found with her belongings in her car in Big Sur. Where is she? She must have gone somewhere with someone, whether she was willing or not.
Could there be any worries about self-harm?
Seems to me that if she were going somewhere with someone, she would have at least taken her phone. Why Big Sur? It's a beautiful area. From Salinas to Big Sur is about 47 miles, taking about 1 hour.
Her family has got to be very worried. Has she ever done anything like this before?
I don't use FB, so I may be missing something that would shed more light on this.

Areli Garcia considered missing by Salinas Police, disappearance seemed "wrong from the beginning" – KION546

SALINAS. Calif. (KION-TV)- It's been four days since 25-year-old Areli Garcia was reported missing.

According to Public Information Officer Miguel Cabrera of Salinas PD, things seemed all wrong from the beginning when she was reported missing on Thursday.

“She had failed to show up for work on that day which is very unusual for her,” Officer Cabrera said. “She also left without saying anything to friends or family members.”

Information given to Salinas PD led them to search for Garcia in Big Sur. Her car was then discovered in the area with her belongings and a phone inside.

Cabrera added that at this point, the investigation is being handled as a missing person case. There are no indications that Garcia took her own life.

“Monterey County Sheriff's Office and their rescue team conducted a search of that area, and they were unsuccessful in finding Areli,” Officer Cabrera said.

Investigators have spoken to friends and family to get as much information as possible, yet no one has provided information that can help detectives find her.

Officer Cabrera stated that their focus is, “Obviously, our hope and our goal is to bring her home safely.”

Friends who work with her tell KION, Areli's family is kindly asking for their privacy at this time as they’re still grieving and processing thing

The family adds that she was last seen in a hoodie and sweatpants at 6:30 a.m. She didn't report for work at 7 a.m.

Unless she was planning on getting changed at work, it seems safe to assume that she was not intending on going to work that morning.

Areli Garcia's family asking for more support in search – KION546
Family members telling KION they are frustrated with Salinas Police and the lack of information they are being given about the investigation.

"We were supposed to get the support today, and they called us last minute that they weren't going to be able to show up," said family spokesperson Abby Gomez. "And I think that's where the frustration lays because we feel we don't have the support. I understand that there are other cases, but this case is also important to us. "

Family members also told KION that Areli has a sweet and bubbly personality and that disappearing without a word is completely unlike her.

Salinas Police say they need the public's assistance in searching for Areli. They do not have enough evidence gathered to know what exactly happened to her. For now, they will investigate her disappearance as a missing person case.

Areli's car was found in the Big Sur Area with her cell phone in the car. The family tells us the coordinates given to them by police where they found her car are 41100-41432 CA-1, Big Sur, CA, 93920.

This article previously incorrectly stated that Salinas Police believe Areli Garcia did not take her own life. That was not accurate, as Salinas Police have no evidence to suggest what happened to her.

I came across this article about another young woman from the area. I wonder how police can state there is no connection to Areli when they don't know where Areli is or what happened to her.

I spent a good half-hour trying to figure it out when it was first released and got nowhere (they called them coordinates, which made me think GPS, but I think it's actually a range of street numbers).

In the article linked right before your post, it says her car was found "near the Little Sur River in Big Sur".

When I search both #41100 and #41432 Cabrillo Hwy (CA-1) on Google Maps, it shows them as being by the Point Sur Naval Facility, which is a couple miles south of where the Little Sur River meets the Pacific Ocean.
