After taking her dog on a Mexican walk, a California woman went missing.
KTVU reported Monica De Leon (29), from San Mateo, California was walking her dog in Tepatitlan near Guadalajara on Nov. 29, when she was allegedly abducted by someone in a van.
According to the Facebook group “Help us Find Monica De Leon”, which has 630 members, De Leon was headed to a gym called Fit 4 LIFE in Tepatitlan near Guadalajara.
