Hawaii Woman Missing After Cryptic Texts and Surveillance Footage Raise Concerns

Hannah Kobayashi, 30, vanished during a layover in Los Angeles while en route to New York, prompting her family to launch an urgent search.

Hannah Kobayashi, a photographer from Maui, disappeared on November 11 after missing her connecting flight at LAX during a planned trip to New York City.
Surveillance footage shows her with an unidentified man near the Pico Metro station in Los Angeles on the same day her family received alarming text messages from her phone.
The messages, which included claims of identity theft and financial loss, were described by her family as uncharacteristic and concerning.
Her family has criticized the Los Angeles Police Department for a delayed response and is conducting its own search efforts, including rallies and distributing flyers.
The FBI has joined the investigation, and Kobayashi's family continues to plead for public assistance in locating her.
