The parents of a missing California woman are desperately searching for her after receiving a concerning video call in which she appeared distraught.
Authorities in San Diego have launched a missing persons investigation for 25-year-old India Delilah O’Hanlon after she was reported missing by her family on 25 January.
India, an Australian-American, last spoke with her parents on 16 January after her mother had spent weeks trying to get in touch with her, her father Creed O’Hanlon told The Independent . Mr O’Hanlon said that India seemed agitated, high and possibly scared when a man walked into the room mid-conversation.
Shortly after Mr O’Hanlon heard the man, the call abruptly ended. India has not been heard from since.
“She was agitated, could not settle and was avoiding eye contact. She told us that she had lost her job, was broke, and was staying with a friend,” Mr Creed recounted. “The unseen guy returned about 30 minutes into what had been an awkward phone call.
“She immediately looked wary, maybe even frightened, she then said, ‘I gotta go’, and hung up. Her mother tried to call her back but no answer. That was the last time we saw her or had any kind of contact.”
