Age at Disappearance: 59
Height: 5′ 6″
Weight: 130-140
Hair: Brown
Eyes: Brown
Distinguishing Characteristics: Scars, Marks, Tattoos: Asian female. Flower tattoo on right forearm. Hot Dog shaped birthmark on side area, light brown in color. Paula wears full dentures. Paula is a transgender woman (M to F) woman. Paula is recovering from rotator cuff surgery.
Details of Disappearance: Paula was on a layover at DFW International Airport en route to Cozumel, Mexico via American Airlines–a flight she did not take. She was seen on Surveillance footage in Terminal C at 10:30 pm. She walked 2 and 1/2 miles up International Pkwy away from airport. Walked to south service road coming south. Walked by a valet gate. Seen on footage going towards Warehouse district at 1:48 am. Walked across the street across from warehouses and sat on curb. You see her sitting on a curb on the south end of the official warehouse district off the intersection of South 20th Ave and S Airfield . She then abruptly gets up and walks away from curb at 3:52 am. She walks around corner of curb going East, goes around a DFW airport sign (footage of her is obstructed by sign) and that’s the last they can see of her on the footage. The main road goes North and South. This warehouse district that Paula was last seen near is off a main road. Technically on airport property but leased out to different private companies. The intersection she was last seen at is surrounded by construction, ditches, ravines, swampy areas, a small lake and lots of wooded brush areas that are hard to search with a small number of people. We think that she headed East after going out of view of surveillance camera.
