Mother Of Missing Nurse Fears Daughter Was Abducted
FAIRFIELD, Calif. (CBS13) ―
The mother of a young nurse who disappeared without a trace more
than 48 hours ago thinks her daughter was abducted.
Phuong Le, 24, parked her car near a Barnes & Nobles bookstore in
shopping plaza on Gateway Drive in Fairfield on Sunday afternoon at
about 4:00 p.m. and hasn't been heard from since, according to the
Fairfield Police Department.
Hong Le, the missing woman's brother, said police are planning to
collect DNA samples from him and his parents.
A witness inside the store told police he saw her sitting down reading a
book and she did not appear to be stressed. She usually went there to
study and read books; however, Fairfield Police say they have gone over
surveillance footage from the bookstore and it does not show Puong.
Phuong's mother, Sang Pham, says that when her daughter left home on
Sunday, Phuong was frustrated about having to hand out fliers for her
sister's beauty salon.
The last phone call Phoung made was to a Tchu Nguyen, her friend and
former boss during the time she worked at Postal Express in Suisun City.
He said that she called him at around 6 p.m. Sunday evening, and was
distraught about her financial situation and not being able to find work
as a nurse.
Phuong's brother, Hong, says she left after she had an argument with
another sibling over the phone. He says she went to the bookstore to
cool off.
Because the family lives in Suisun City, Le's brother contacted police
around 3:30 a.m. Monday morning worried his sister was missing. Suisun
Police responded to the Fairfield parking lot where Le's car was parked
and looked inside. In the trunk, they found her purse, wallet, cell
phone and other personal belongings.
A missing person's report was later filed.
Friends and family spent much of Wednesday posting fliers around
Fairfield in hopes of finding her as police continue to investigate.
Police are examining Le's computer, cell phone records and car. They
searched her room Tuesday and took a digital camera, a memory card, he
social security card, her passport, a notebook and miscellaneous papers.
Phuong does not have a history of staying out of contact with family and
friends. They have also set up a
Facebook
page dedicated to helping find her.
Anyone with information on Phuong Le's whereabouts is asked to call the
Fairfield Police Department.
