Pantoja, who works as a bartender at a local restaurant, went out with friends on May 10, and returned home around 11:00 p.m.; that’s the last time she was seen by family and friends. Friend Jasmine Hernandez said she had plans with Pantoja on May 11, when the pair planned to spend a day relaxing by the pool inside Pantoja’s apartment complex, located at 1711 West Francis.
[...]
Location services shared between the two friends showed that Pantoja’s phone was inside her home; that’s what caused Hernandez to stop by, just to check in. According to the Midland Police Department and Hernandez, Pantoja’s car was found in the apartment complex parking lot.
Hernandez said she knocked on Pantoja’s door several times, to no avail. Growing more concerned, Hernandez called Pantoja’s brother, who then joined her to continue knocking. Again, Pantoja didn’t answer her door and that’s when they asked a maintenance worker to let them inside to do a welfare check.

... Pantoja’s loved ones have said they don’t feel they are being heard. In response, and in hopes of getting some answers, a group of about 100 people gathered outside MPD Thursday evening with candles and signs calling for “justice” in what they called a “silent protest”.

Additionally, residents of the apartment complex said they heard a man and woman arguing both inside and outside of Pantoja’s apartment the night she went missing. This, coupled with the fact that Pantoja and her ex reportedly broke up just weeks before her disappearance, has caused family and friends to question if the man might somehow be involved.
Security cameras from the apartment complex in which Pantoja disappeared were not working, according to Hernandez. And the few cameras that were working were live feed only, and did not record anyone entering or exiting the complex. In short, no one truly knows if Pantoja left on foot or by car. No one knows if she left with anyone, and no one knows what she was wearing. That’s what has family and friends so frustrated.

“Because our efforts are conducted in a methodical, technique based, and legally comprehensive manner, we direct the public to neither interfere by engaging in their own investigations, which could, potentially impede locating Miss Pantoja and any ensuing investigation that may follow,” Herman said. “Any interference…that may thwart efforts may result in…criminal charges. This is an ongoing investigation; it is paramount that we continue in our work, we have men and women out 24 hours a day…gathering evidence. We ask the public to be patient, to call in with any information that may lead to her whereabouts, and to avoid spreading unnecessary and untrue rumors.”
