Surveillance video showing last year's kidnapping in Mexico of Monica de Leon Barba, a U.S. citizen from the Bay Area, was released Thursday by FBI's San Francisco office along with new details in the case.
Barba was kidnapped in Tepatitlán, Jalisco, Mexico, while walking home from work with her dog on November 29, 2022. The FBI said it hopes the public release of the videos will help produce new leads in finding the 29-year-old.
"The FBI is requesting the public's assistance in locating Monica and returning her safely to her family. We believe these videos may help generate new public tips to assist in our investigation," said FBI Special Agent in Charge Robert K. Tripp in a prepared statement.. According to the agency, the videos indicate at least five suspects were involved in the kidnapping using three vehicles, a white Chevy Suburban, a gray Dodge Charger, and a silver Volkswagen Jetta.

The FBI urged anyone with information about Barba's location to contact a local FBI office or the nearest American Embassy or Consulate. Tips can also be submitted online at tips.fbi.gov, or at 1-800-CALL-FBI .
