Yojaira Perez Chun was 16 and had been in the United States about one week when she vanished from West Valley City, Utah, on or around March 24, 2022. She had come from Guatemala and was staying with a distant family member. Shortly after she was reported missing, the family member found that Yojaira had blocked them on all social media and on her phone.

Authorities initially classified the case as a runaway and say she may have left with a person identified as Mario, who reportedly became defensive when contacted by police. There are unconfirmed reports she may have been seen in Minnesota with a boyfriend or another unidentified male. Yojaira is described as Hispanic, with black hair, 5 feet 2 inches tall and about 130 pounds.

The investigation remains active and investigators are seeking tips that could locate her. If anyone knew Yojaira, her travel plans, or saw her in Utah or Minnesota around late March 2022, please share what was observed.
