It’s been two weeks since Hawaiian woman Hannah Kobayashi went missing after failing to board a connecting flight to New York City during a layover at Los Angeles International Airport on November 8.

Her father, Ryan Kobayashi, was found dead on Sunday after traveling to Los Angeles to look for her.

Ryan Kobayashi’s body was found around 4 a.m. Sunday on West Century Boulevard, the LAPD confirmed to CNN — at an address near the airport. The los angeles county medical examiner’s office determined he died from suicide.

The Kobayashi family said the “devastating tragedy” only increased their fears.

“After thirteen days of tireless searching throughout Los Angeles, Hannah’s father, Ryan Kobayashi, tragically took his own life. This loss has immeasurably increased the family’s suffering,” the family said in a statement statement released through a nonprofit that assisted in the search.

As the search for Hannah continues, here’s what we know:

A planned trip to New York

Hannah had plans to spend time with an aunt in upstate New York earlier this month.

On November 8, she took a flight from Maui to Los Angeles. She was scheduled to take a connecting flight from Los Angeles International Airport to John F. Kennedy International Airport the same day, but did not board, her sister, Sydni, previously told CNN.

Hannah had the same itinerary as an ex-boyfriend. The couple decided to keep their flights as they could not get a refund but would go their separate ways once they landed in New York, Sydni. said.

The next day, Hannah was seen at a Taschen bookstore in The Grove mall in Los Angeles, her sister said, and it is unclear why she was there. Hannah then sent a Venmo payment to two people whose names they don’t recognize: Sydni said.

On Sunday, November 10 a video has been posted on YouTube with Hannah during the LeBron XXII Trial Experience, a event held at the Nike store in the same mall. A photo from the event was also posted on her Instagram accounther sister said.

On November 11 – the last day anyone heard from the missing woman – her mother texted her asking if she had made it to New York. Hannah answered no, her sister said. Hannah also sent messages to a friend saying she didn’t feel safe and that someone was trying to steal her identity and money, according to screenshots her sister sent to CNN.

“Deep Hackers erased my identity, stole all my money and have had me on their minds since Friday,” said a message to a friend.

Another message read: “I was tricked into giving away all my money,” followed by a message that read: “For someone I thought I loved.”

On November 15, the Los Angeles Police Department’s Missing Persons Unit created a poster about Hannah’s disappearance, stating that she was last seen at the airport. It said she has freckles on her face and a tattoo on her forearm.

In a statement posted to Facebook on November 17, Sydni said the family had obtained surveillance footage showing her sister around the downtown subway station near Crypto.com Arena, although it was unclear exactly when the footage was taken.

In the images, Hannah is not alone and “does not appear to be in good condition”, the family wrote: proverb they cannot share further details.

‘Ryan died of a broken heart’

Hannah’s father Ryan traveled to Los Angeles not long after his daughter’s disappearance to help search for her.

“Hannah loved to travel. She loved photography, art, music. I wasn’t that close to her… growing up. We haven’t been in touch for a while,” said the elder Kobayashi told CNN’s Veronica Miracle in an interview last week. ‘I’m just trying to make it right. I’m trying to get her back. That is my main focus.”

But after searching for his 30-year-old daughter for nearly two weeks, he was found dead, according to a family statement.

Hannah’s aunt, Larie Pidgeon, spoke briefly to CNN about Ryan’s death.

“As you can imagine, the family is devastated,” Pidgeon said Monday. “We also want to make it clear that Ryan passed away from a broken heart.”

A newly released statement from the family said Monday that they have been “overwhelmed by the immense outpouring of love and support” during this time.

“The loss of Ryan has been a heartbreaking tragedy for all of us, and we are forever grateful for the compassion and strength you have shown. As we navigate the unimaginable grief, we hold on to hope and turn to our community for help,” the statement said.

“The search for our beloved Hannah must continue with the same love and determination that Ryan would have wanted. We need your help, we need your strength. Our family needs you. The search for our dear Hannah must continue with unwavering hope and determination. She is still here, and we believe we can bring her home together,” the post continued.

A GoFundMe page has been set up to support Ryan’s fiancée “during this unimaginable time”.
