洛杉矶-洛杉矶(美联社)汉娜·小林警方周三表示，失踪的夏威夷女子已被安全找到，她的失踪引发了洛杉矶的大规模搜索和失踪人员调查。
小林上个月在洛杉矶失踪了。她错过了转机航班，并计划第二天探索这座城市，但随后给家人发的短信——以及无法联系到她——让他们如此惊慌，以至于他们后来报告她失踪了。
关于她失踪的其他细节，以及她是在哪里和如何被发现的，周三都没有立即公布，但警方此前表示，她是“自愿失踪”的，是自愿离开的越过边境进入墨西哥.
洛杉矶警察局在一份声明中说:“我们很高兴得知汉娜已经被安全找到。”。“现在我们有了这个新的信息，这已经成为一个私人问题，我们将结束我们的调查。"
小林的母亲和姐姐通过他们的律师发表声明，最先宣布她已被安全找到。
“汉娜平安无事，我们感到无比欣慰和感激，”布兰迪·易和西德妮·小林写道。“过去的一个月对我们的家庭来说是难以想象的折磨，在我们花时间疗伤和处理我们所经历的一切时，我们请求隐私。我们想对在这个困难时期支持我们的每一个人表示衷心的感谢。你的善良和关心对我们来说意味着一切。”
小林是毛伊岛的一名初露头角的摄影师，11月8日，她准备去纽约找一份新工作，并去拜访亲戚，但在洛杉矶国际机场停留时，她错过了转机航班。她告诉家人她当晚睡在机场，第二天给他们发短信说她在洛杉矶观光。
据她的姑姑拉里·皮金(Larie Pidgeon)说，她的家人在亲戚收到“奇怪而神秘的，只是令人担忧的”短信后，于11月11日向执法部门报告了她的失踪。
“一旦家庭开始施压，她就陷入黑暗，”皮金上月末告诉美联社。皮金说，在11月11日的短信之后，她的手机“就死机了”。
家人、朋友和当地志愿者在洛杉矶寻找汉娜。汉娜的父亲瑞安·小林也是从夏威夷赶来帮助搜寻的人之一。据县法医称，他于11月24日在洛杉矶国际机场附近的停车场被发现死亡。小林的家人证实瑞恩·小林的死在同一天的一份声明中，称他们“忍受了一场毁灭性的悲剧”，他死于自杀。
警方称，汉娜·小林于11月12日，也就是她的家人报告她失踪的第二天，在洛杉矶东南约125英里(201公里)的圣伊西德罗边境口岸走进了墨西哥。当局在查看了美国海关和边境保护局的安全录像后宣布了这一消息。
洛杉矶警察局局长吉姆·麦克唐奈(Jim McDonnell)此前表示，小林是在寻求“远离现代连接”时自愿失踪的。
Missing Hawaii woman whose disappearance prompted a massive search is found safe
LOS ANGELES --LOS ANGELES (AP) —Hannah Kobayashi, the missing Hawaii woman whose disappearance prompted a massive search and a missing persons investigation in Los Angeles, has been found safe, police said Wednesday.
Kobayashi vanished last month in Los Angeles. She missed her connecting flight and planned to explore the city the next day, but subsequent text messages to her family — and an inability to then reach her — alarmed them so much that they later reported her missing.
Other details about her disappearance, as well as where and how she was found, were not immediately available Wednesday, but police previously said she was “voluntarily missing” and had gone on her own willacross the border into Mexico.
“We are happy to learn that Hannah has been found safe," the Los Angeles Police Department said in a statement. “Now that we have this new information, this has become a private matter and we will wrap upour investigation.”
Kobayashi's mother and sister, in a statement through their lawyer, were the first to announce Wednesday that she had been found safe.
“We are incredibly relieved and grateful that Hannah has been found safe,” Brandi Yee and Sydni Kobayashi wrote. “This past month has been an unimaginable ordeal for our family, and we kindly ask for privacy as we take the time to heal and process everything we have been through. We want to express our heartfelt thanks to everyone who supported us during this difficult time. Your kindness and concern have meant the world to us.”
Kobayashi, a budding photographer from Maui, was heading to New York City on Nov. 8 for a new job and to visit relatives when she missed a connecting flight during a stop at Los Angeles International Airport. She told her family she was sleeping at the airport that night and texted them the next day to say she was sightseeing in Los Angeles.
Her family reported her missing to law enforcement on Nov. 11 after relatives received “strange and cryptic, just alarming” text messages, according to her aunt Larie Pidgeon.
“Once the family started pressing, she went dark,” Pidgeon told The Associated Press late last month. After the texts on Nov. 11, her phone “just went dead,” Pidgeon said.
Family members, friends and local volunteers searched for Hannah in Los Angeles. Hannah’s father, Ryan Kobayashi, was among those who flew in from Hawaii to help in the search. He was found dead Nov. 24 in a parking lot near LA International Airport, according to the county medical examiner. Kobayashi’s family confirmedRyan Kobayashi's deathin a statement the same day, saying they “endured a devastating tragedy” and that he died by suicide.
Police said Hannah Kobayashi walked into Mexico at the San Ysidro border crossing about 125 miles (201 kilometers) southeast of Los Angeles on Nov. 12, the day after her family reported her missing. Authorities made the announcement after reviewing security video from U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
Kobayashi disappeared voluntarily as she sought to “step away from modern connectivity,” Jim McDonnell, the LA police chief, previously said.
