California woman kidnapped in Mexico seen in video footage released by FBI
The FBI has released video footage of missing California woman Monica DeLeon Barba "moments before" she was kidnaped in Tepatitlán, Jalisco, Mexico.
The U.S. Coast Guard and Mexican Navy are searching for three American sailors who have been missing for almost two weeks.
“Three persons aboard the sailing vessel Ocean Bound, a 44-foot La Fitte, reportedly left Mazatlán en route to San Diego,” the Coast Guard said Friday. “The sailors planned to stop in Cabo San Lucas on April 6 for provisions and to report in before continuing on to San Diego.”
“However, there was no record of them arriving in Cabo San Lucas or a report of their location,” the statement added
Kerry O’Brien, Frank O’Brien and William Gross set sail on their vessel Ocean Bound, last making contact with anyone on April 4 when they were near Mazatlán, Mexico, the Coast Guard said.
