The Bexar County Sheriff’s Office and the San Antonio
Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) are seeking information from the public
about the disappearance of Maarib Al Hishmawi, a 16-year-old female high school
student who was last seen on Jan. 30, 2018.
The Bexar County Sheriff’s Office initiated an investigation
shortly after Maarib’s disappearance. The FBI has now joined in the search for
Maarib and the two agencies are pursuing the matter as a joint investigation.
Maarib is described as 5'5", 150 lbs, with light
complexion, black hair, and brown eyes. She was last seen around 12:30 p.m. on
Jan. 30 leaving William Howard Taft High School at 11600 Culebra Road, San
Antonio, Texas. Maarib may have been wearing jeans, a white jacket with black
piping, light colored pump style heels, and a black and white floral hijab
(headscarf) which covered her head and neck.
It is important to note, the investigation has revealed
allegations that Maarib was physically abused by someone she knew. Authorities
are therefore not only focused on recovering Maarib, but also on ensuring that
she is in a safe environment.
Anyone with information about Maarib is asked to contact
Crime Stoppers at 210-224-STOP (7867). Tips can also be submitted online at
tips.fbi.gov. Anyone providing information may remain anonymous.
