Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP15543) and 1 other source
Daria Lopez Lopez, a 24-year-old woman, was last seen on May 23, 2012, near Falfurrias, Texas. She was part of a group that had crossed the U.S.-Mexico border, aiming to reach Houston, Texas. After walking for five days, Daria became ill and fainted near a location described as being close to Highway 281, near Falfurrias, and identifiable by three large yellow tanks and a cell antenna. The group she was traveling with attempted to revive her by pouring water on her head, but when she only partially regained consciousness, they left her behind with a small bottle of water and continued on their journey.

Her case remains unsolved, and authorities are seeking any information that could help locate her. Daria's disappearance highlights the dangers faced by migrants attempting to cross the border, including extreme physical conditions and the risks of being abandoned when vulnerable.
