A woman traveling alone from Hawaii to see family in New York has not been heard from for more than a week as the family desperately searches for her with the help of the Los Angeles Police Department.

A day after Kobayashi went missing, she was spotted in downtown Los Angeles near a Metro station. She was with someone and did not look well, Larie Pidgeon, the woman’s aunt told KTLA 5. “She is not safe, and she is not alone,” she said.
