SAN ANTONIO — It's been nearly three months since Katelyn "Kate" Vara went missing after leaving a medical clinic on the city's west side.
Kate's mother Valerie Mendoza says there is some real concern for Katelyn's safety, because since she's gone missing, she hasn't been in contact with anyone.
On the morning of Aug. 6, Kate left her west-side home on Maria Elena, near Culebra to go to a medical appointment.
“They've got footage showing that she did make it to her appointment. She went successfully, left and then after that no one knows what happened with her," said Mendoza.
Mendoza says after Kate went missing, other people were using Kate's phone which she says was not normal because Kate always had her phone. Mendoza also says stories they told her don't add up.https://www.kens5.com/article/news/l...9-0d1003ca9a6aMendoza says the past few months has been hard on her emotionally but she has to be strong for Kate's 4-year-old son James. Mendoza says James keeps asking for his mother.
San Antonio Police have been investigating Kate's disappearance and now Mendoza says homicide is involved.
“Now because of the seriousness and the people involved, people that know what happened and what's going on because there is definitely foul play involved, without a doubt. They know that," Mendoza said.
Kate's family has been raising money through a plate sale and raffle, so they can offer a reward. They are offering $3,000, hoping someone will come forward with information.
