Police on Saturday asked for the public's help to find a 19-year-old art student who was reported missing over the weekend.
Janet Ji Young Choi was last seen Saturday morning at her home in the 4900 block of Maplewood Avenue in East Hollywood (map). She never made it to an art class later that day, which was unusual for her and has left her family "extremely worried," according to a Los Angeles Police Department statement.
Choi was described as a Korean-American woman with black hair, brown eyes, 5 feet, 3 inches tall weighing about 90 pounds.
Anyone with information can contact Detective A. Mercado at 213-996-1800. During non-business hours or on weekends, call 877-527-3247.
