The surveillance information was provided by Metropolitan Transit System Security staff, who have been working closely with La Mesa Detectives on this investigation and have provided valuable information in the investigation. While a review of the surveillance information shows no evidence of the victim being abducted from the Grossmont Trolley Station, the investigation is continuing in an effort to determine all the facts and identify any suspects involved in crimes committed against the victim, either in La Mesa or elsewhere. The La Mesa Police Department is investigating a report by a 15 year-old female that she was taken against her will by three adult Hispanic males from the Grossmont Trolley station at 8601 Fletcher Parkway, La Mesa.
