The Coconino County Sheriff’s Office in Arizona is actively seeking information regarding the whereabouts of Jiyeon Lee, age 33, her mother Taehee Kim, age 59, and her aunt Junghee Kim, age 54, all of South Korea.

Their trip began from the Grand Canyon on Thursday, March 13, with plans to reach Las Vegas.

The family was last seen traveling by road in a white BMW with California license plates.

The sheriff’s office has acknowledged the occurrence of multiple vehicle collisions along I-40 near the Grand Canyon on the same date due to a significant snowstorm.

However, it remains unclear whether the missing family’s vehicle was involved in any of those incidents.
