San Antonio mystery: Observance held for 5th birthday of Lina Sardar Khil who vanished 14 months ago

Today is Lina's fifth birthday and Houston sketch artist Lois Gibson was asked to show what she might look like now, at age 5.

SAN ANTONIO — It's been 14 months since Lina Sardar Khil disappeared from the playground of her apartment complex on Fredericksburg Road near USAA on December 20, 2021.

Monday is also Lina's 5th birthday.

Several searches by law enforcement and volunteers have been fruitless and she remains a missing person with San Antonio Police.

SAPD and the FBI are still searching for any tips that could help them find her.

Eagles Flight Advocacy & Outreach travelled to Houston to seek the assistance of a renowned sketch artist named Lois Gibson to ask that she do an artist rendering of what Lina may look like now.

The sketches of what Lina possibly looks like at 5 years old were revealed Monday at the Vive Apartments located at 9400 Fredericksburg Rd.

They hope that the rendering will be shared both nationwide and globally and will get more than 10,000 shares.

Please call SAPD's Missing Person Unit at (210) 207-7660 if you have any information on her disappearance.
