The South Florida police are working against time knowing that every minute that passes is crucial in the search for Ashley Espinoza-Sánchez, a young woman from 23 years that he disappeared in Miami-Dade County after attending the Rolling music festival Loud.
Detectives in charge of the case spoke with two men who last saw the young woman on Saturday and Monday in the Miami Gardens area. Jared Linwood said he found Espinoza-Sánchez alone, barefoot and disheveled on Sunday, so he decided to help her. He told the authorities that he took her to his Miami Gardens home in a state of apparent intoxication.

The man said that the young woman stayed to sleep at home and he gave her clean clothes, socks and a pair of flip flops. He also let her use the shower and later, on Monday, took her back to the lost and found area of Hard Rock Stadium, where the concert had been held. The woman hoped to find her purse and her phone in that place, but she had no luck.
