San Diego Police Searching for Woman Last Seen Near Sunset Cliffs

Amanda (Mandy) Cruse, 30, first arrived in San Diego on Feb. 18, 2017 from out of town.

San Diego Police (SDPD) are searching for a woman last seen near San Diego's iconic Sunset Cliffs region. 

Amanda (Mandy) Cruse, 30, first arrived in San Diego on Feb. 18, 2017 from out of town. 

On that Saturday, nearly two weeks ago, Cruse visited the Sunset Cliffs region on Point Loma, near Ocean Beach. 

The following day, in the early morning hours of Feb. 19, Cruse may have went back to the Sunset Cliffs area, near Monaco Street. 

Cruse was known to take photographs and may have been in the area to capture photos, police said. 

SDPD Officer Billy Hernandez said authorities do not know the circumstances of how she went missing. There is no reason for police to think the report is false.

Cruse's family flew in from out-of-state and handed out fliers in the Sunset Cliffs area, according to SDPD Lt. Holden, but they have since left town.

Cruse, a Sri Lankan native, is described as 5 feet 3 inches tall, 115 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. She was last seen wearing a grey sweatshirt, blue jeans and black white converse sneakers. 

Any information on Cruse is asked to contact the San Diego Police Department at (619) 531-2000 or Detective Shelly Luna SDPD Missing Person’s Unit (619) 531-2277.
