Police are now calling the March 18 disappearance of Rita Gutierrez-Garcia “suspicious,” according to a Monday post on the Longmont Fire, Police and OEM Facebook page.
Gutierrez-Garcia, 34, was last seen at about 2:30 a.m. walking to a parking lot behind 3’s Bar at 333 Main St. in downtown Longmont after celebrating St. Patrick’s Day with friends and family.
In the Facebook post, the Longmont Police Department asks for home or business surveillance video that may show Gutierrez-Garcia walking alone, with another person or getting into someone’s car anytime between 2:15 and 3:45 a.m. on the day she disappeared.
The department has already reviewed video from “several places” in the area, Cmdr. Joel Post said in a phone interview. Post wouldn’t say what police have found on those videos because they are part of the ongoing investigation.
Longmont police are now calling the disappearance suspicious as Gutierrez-Garcia, a mother of three, has been missing for two weeks and hasn’t contacted her family, which is uncharacteristic of her, Post said.
