Arizona police find SUV linked to missing family 

Three family members have been missing in Arizona for about 11 days. Police officers have been searching for 54-year-old Junghee Kim, 59-year-old Taehee Kim, and 33-year-old Jiyeon Lee. 

Their last known location was near a deadly crash that involved 18 cars. The pile-up on I-40 near Williams caused a fire that burned for over 12 hours. 

According to AZ Family, the family members were visiting the Grand Canyon on the dat of the crash and then they planned to go to Las Vegas. A cell phone ping placed their rental car about a mile from the crash site. 

Police officers recently confirmed that their rental BMW SUV with a California plate was one of the vehicles involved in the crash. They found it burned to a crisp, but the remains inside haven’t been identified. 

Investigators know that the pile-up killed at least two people. However, due to the damage, the process of identifying remains requires meticulous examination. 

A witness claims that she saw the family at a gas station the day before the crash and managed to avoid the massive wreck. Then she saw the missing persons report at the end of the day. 

The Coconino County Sheriff’s Office has no reason to believe foul play was involved. If you have any related information contact the sheriff’s officer at 928-774-4523 or Silent Witness at 929-774-6111. The report number is S25-00828.
