Thongsinthusak's family then sought help from police.

Officers checked Thongsinthusak's home where they found her Ford Taurus missing frrom the driveway, police said

She had not shown up or called her job at an Oakland pharmacy at all this week, according to police.

Thongsinthusak and her vehicle were found safe this evening and no foul play is suspected, McManus said.
