Catherine McCarthur, a 54-year-old woman from Hawaii who was reported missing after arriving in Los Angeles, has been found safe in Mexico. Los Angeles Police Department Chief of Police Jim McDonnell confirmed during a press conference on Monday that McCarthur was seen crossing into Mexico alone with her luggage and is not considered missing.
McCarthur was last seen leaving LAX airport on February 3rd and had not been heard from since. Her disappearance sparked concern among family and friends, who reported her missing to authorities. However, it was later discovered that McCarthur had made her way to Mexico on her own.
The circumstances surrounding McCarthur’s solo trip to Mexico remain unclear, and it is unknown why she did not stay in contact with loved ones during her journey. Despite initial fears for her safety, McDonnell assured the public that McCarthur is not in danger and is not considered a missing person.
This unexpected turn of events has left many puzzled as to why McCarthur chose to travel to Mexico without informing anyone of her plans, and why she did not reach out to reassure her loved ones of her safety. The LAPD is still investigating the situation and trying to determine the details of McCarthur’s trip.
For now, McCarthur’s loved ones can rest assured that she has been located and is safe in Mexico. Her decision to embark on this journey without communication may remain a mystery, but the most important thing is that she has been found unharmed.
